Shadow Strike

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec. It triggers Shadow Strike.

What it does

Shadow Strike is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 45 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec. It also casts Shadow Strike (record #189526).

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.
