How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 367. It triggers Arcane Zap.
  2. Effect 2 is Spawn (effect type 46).

What it does

Arcane Zap is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura and has a Spawn effect. It also casts Arcane Zap (record #1249818).

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.
