How it works

Bear Form is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 36.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -50. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Bear Form is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
