Tooltip

Senn emits a blinding flash of light, inflicting 75 Holy damage to all players and disorienting them for 5 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 75. Its area radius is 300 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5. Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Blinding Light is a Holy spell with a 10 sec cast, a range of 300 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Holy damage (base value 75) in a 300 yard radius and applies an aura in a 300 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the disoriented 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.
