Blinds the target, causing it to wander confused for up to 6 sec. Any damage caused will remove the effect.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -60.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5.

What it does

Blind is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 6 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.
