How it works

Ghost Trap is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Ghost Trap.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Ghost Trap.

What it does

Ghost Trap is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 35 yards. When cast it launches a missile. It also casts Ghost Trap (record #228692) and Ghost Trap (record #228685).

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.
