Polymorph

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.

What it does

Polymorph is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards, a 3 sec cooldown and effects that last 30 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.
