How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Escape Artist is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77. Its base value is 10. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77. Its base value is 10. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Escape Artist is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 2 min cooldown and effects that last 3 sec. 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.
