How it works

Banish is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 39.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 93.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Banish is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the banished mechanic.

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.
