How it works

First Technique is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 10.

What it does

First Technique is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
