Maintain Summons

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Maintain Summons is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 428. It triggers Summon Subdued Heron.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 90, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Maintain Summons 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. It also casts Summon Subdued Heron. It stacks up to 4 times.

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.
