Taunts the target to attack you, but has no effect if the target is already attacking you.
How it works
It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Taunt is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is effect type 114, which the datamine does not name. It scales with 1 times spell power.
- Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11.
What it does
Taunt is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards, an 8 sec cooldown and effects that last 3 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.
