How it works
It works on charges (charge category 1254); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Windstrike is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Windstrike.
- Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Windstrike Off-Hand.
What it does
Windstrike is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 30 yards. It also casts Windstrike (record #115357) and Windstrike Off-Hand.
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.
