Creates a shadowy fiend to attack the target. Lasts 15 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Shadowfiend is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Summon (effect type 28).
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers spell id 41967.
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Shadowfiend is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards, a 3 min cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it summons a creature.

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.
