How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. Its base value is 1. It triggers Backdraft.

What it does

Backdraft is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Backdraft (record #54274).

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.
