How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dispel (effect type 38). Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Dispel (effect type 38). Its base value is 1.
  3. Effect 3 is Dispel (effect type 38). Its base value is 1.

What it does

Cleanse is a Holy spell with an instant cast and a range of 30 yards. When cast it dispels effects.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Classic Era client, build 1.15.9.70576. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
