Army of the Dead

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Army of the Dead is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 4 sec. It triggers Army of the Dead.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Army of the Dead is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 150 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura every 4 sec. It also casts Army of the Dead (record #49100).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
