How it works

Casting it triggers a 1 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 12. Its base value is 1.

What it does

Kidney Shot is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards, a 20 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
