How it works
Each cast of Expose Armor costs 25 Energy. Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Expose Armor is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 674.
- Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).
What it does
Expose Armor is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 30 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.
