Hmm, so would there be any problem if, instead of going to spellduration and changing it there, I can just find a spell with the same duration I want, and then use the durationindex for that?

In spell.dbc

You shouldn't change it in SpellDuration, it is a reference table that you would grab values from and plug them into Spell.dbc

I can just copy the durationindex from a spell with the time I want and pluck it into the spells I want to change

unless you're going with a weird timer amount, you wouldn't need to add rows to spell duration, it already has a lot of different durations registered in it

Gotcha, thanks, helped a lot! Naw, not going with a weird time, it honestly just annoyed me that a bunch of old spell buffs had different timers, and I just wanted to normalize them all to the same time.

which would be the same as looking at SpellDuration.dbc, and seeing which row has the duration you want, then plugging that row id into your Spell's DurationIndex
