Play Movie

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 45, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Play Movie is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 30 sec cooldown and effects that last 1 min. 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.
