Shadow Spike

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 3 sec. It triggers Shadow Spike.

What it does

Shadow Spike is a spell with a 0.8 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 28 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec. It also casts Shadow Spike (record #46589).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Burning Crusade client, build 2.5.6.70006. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
