Vanish

Tooltip

Allows the rogue to vanish from sight, entering an improved stealth mode for 10 sec. Also breaks movement impairing effects.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Vanish.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Vanish Purge.
  3. Effect 3 is Sanctuary (effect type 79).

What it does

Vanish is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and a 5 min cooldown. When cast it has a Sanctuary effect. It also casts Vanish (record #11327) and Vanish Purge.

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.
