Tooltip

Emits a cloud of smoke, stunning nearby enemies for 3 sec. and putting the caster into stealth mode.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Stealth.

What it does

Smoke Cloud 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 in a 5 yard radius and applies an aura. It also casts Stealth.

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.
