Metamorphosis

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Learn Spell (effect type 36). It triggers Metamorphosis.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 106.

What it does

Metamorphosis is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 0.8 sec. When cast it teaches a spell and applies an aura. It also casts Metamorphosis (record #191427).

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.
