Intimidating Shout

Tooltip

Shouts at an enemy, paralyzing it with terror for 8 sec. and causing all other nearby enemies to flee in fear.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Intimidating Shout.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 31. Its base value is 25. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Intimidating Shout is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura in an 8 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the fleeing mechanic. It also casts Intimidating Shout (record #29544).

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.
