Tracking Aura

How it works

Tracking Aura is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Summon Morketh.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 167, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Tracking Aura is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 3 min. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Summon Morketh.

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.
