Builds a sphere of Arcane energy, gaining power over 1 sec.

Upon release, the sphere passes through any barriers, knocking enemies back and dealing up to Arcane damage.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 395.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 191. Its base value is 3.

What it does

Arcanosphere is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 60 yards, a 20 sec cooldown and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
