Umbral Shell

How it works

Umbral Shell is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -100.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 226. It ticks every 5 sec, 120 times over the full 10 min.

What it does

Umbral Shell is a spell with a 1.5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 min. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 5 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.
