How it works

Each cast of Demon Skin costs 50 Mana. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Demon Skin is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 674. Its base value is 40.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 84. Its base value is 3.

What it does

Demon Skin is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 10 sec cooldown and effects that last 30 min. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
