How it works

Lantern of Darkness is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its base value is 192015 per tick. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 12 times over the full 6 sec (2.30418e+06 base in total). It triggers Lantern of Darkness.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Lantern of Darkness is a Shadow spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.5 sec. It also casts Lantern of Darkness (record #195460).

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.
