Puts the caster in stealth mode for 2.5 sec.

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.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 18. Its base value is 9999.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 93. Its base value is 1.

What it does

Vanish is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 2 sec cooldown and effects that last 2.5 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.
