Tooltip

Spins around for 6 sec, inflicting 12 Physical damage every 1 sec. to enemies and knocking them back.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 6 times over the full 6 sec. It triggers Shell Spin.

What it does

Shell Spin is a spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec. It also casts Shell Spin (record #202292).

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.
