How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Machine Gun 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 0.2 sec, 20 times over the full 5 sec. It triggers Machine Gun.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is -50.

What it does

Machine Gun is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 0.2 sec and applies an aura. It also casts Machine Gun (record #49982).

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.
