  2. Effect 2 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Arcing Lightning is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster).

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.
