How it works

Gathering Storm is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 10 sec. It triggers Gathering Storm.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69. Its base value is 10.

What it does

Gathering Storm is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura every 10 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Gathering Storm (record #1251357).

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.
