Ghost

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 95. Its base value is -20.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 25.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 58. Its base value is 25. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Ghost is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70338. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
