Spinning Shell

How it works

Spinning Shell is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -1.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 1 sec.

What it does

Spinning Shell 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 and applies an aura every 1 sec.

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.
