  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Oppressing Howl.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Oppressing Howl.

What it does

Oppressing Howl is a Shadow spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 min. When cast it applies an aura in a 300 yard radius. It also casts Oppressing Howl (record #401386) and Oppressing Howl (record #401384).
