Shed your saurok disguise. Releasing its energy will root and deal Arcane damage to enemies around you.

How it works

Arcane Surge is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Skin of the Saurok.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Arcane Surge is an Arcane spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Skin of the Saurok.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
