Incorporeal darkness reduces damage taken by 99%.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -75.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -99.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Shadowy.

What it does

Shadowy is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Shadowy (record #1253899).

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.
