How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 50000 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec. It triggers Shadow Gale.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 100.

What it does

Shadow Gale is a Shadow spell with a 5 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 50000 yard radius every 1 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Shadow Gale (record #75692).

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.
