How it works

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 160, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Investigating.

What it does

Investigating is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Investigating (record #342106).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 84 separate Spell records named "Investigating". This page is record #342107. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
