Turns the caster invisible and increases its movement speed by 50% for 3 sec.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Fade 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 500.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 50. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Fade is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) 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.
