How it works

Herbalism is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Learn Spell (effect type 36). It triggers Herb Gathering.
  2. Effect 2 is Learn Spell (effect type 36). It triggers Herb Gathering.
  3. Effect 3 is Skill Step (effect type 44). Its base value is 1.

What it does

Herbalism is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it teaches a spell and has a Skill Step effect. It also casts Herb Gathering and Herb Gathering.

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.
