Gateway

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Gateway is built from 7 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  2. Effect 2 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  4. Effect 4 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  5. Effect 5 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  6. Effect 6 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  7. Effect 7 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Waygate.

What it does

Gateway is a Shadow spell with a 4 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura and has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Waygate. It stacks up to 99 times.

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.
