How it works

Berserk is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 500.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is 150.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 284. It triggers Berserk.

What it does

Berserk is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 min. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Berserk (record #64112).

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.
