How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Growl is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 114, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 1000.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11. Its base value is 5000.
  4. Effect 4 is Threat (effect type 63). Its base value is 8000000.

What it does

Growl is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura and changes threat.

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.
