How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Greater Dreamless Sleep is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 8. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 24. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec.

What it does

Greater Dreamless Sleep is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 3 sec. The client files the whole spell under the asleep mechanic.

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.
