  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).

What it does

Arcane Orb is an Arcane spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 3 sec cooldown and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
