Recklessness

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 52. Its base value is 100.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 101. Its base value is -35.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 38. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Recklessness is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 15 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.
