Throw Axe

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Jump to Destination (effect type 42). Its area radius is 45 yards. It triggers Throw Axe.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Fel Infusion.

What it does

Throw Axe is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range, a 6 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it makes the caster jump to a location up to 45 yards and applies an aura. It also casts Throw Axe (record #196889) and Fel Infusion.

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.
