How it works

Each cast of Challenging Shout costs 5 Rage. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Challenging Shout is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 10 min cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
