How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). It triggers Hook.

What it does

Hook is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5-30 yards and a 20 sec cooldown. When cast it launches a missile. It also casts Hook (record #256591).

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.
