Lucia portals in pursuit of her voidwalker.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 254, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Nether Portal is a Shadow spell with a 2 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
