Nightmares

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 40 sec. It triggers Nightmares.

What it does

Nightmares 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 every 40 sec. It also casts Nightmares (record #205662).

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.
