How it works

Summon Skeletons is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Summon (effect type 28). Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Summon (effect type 28). Its area radius is 10 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Summon (effect type 28). Its area radius is 10 yards.
  4. Effect 4 is Summon (effect type 28). Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Summon Skeletons is a spell with a 1.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it summons a creature in a 10 yard radius.

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.
