Idle

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 395.
  2. Effect 2 is Spawn (effect type 46).
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Submerged.

What it does

Idle 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 and has a Spawn effect. It also casts Submerged.

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.
