A torrent of death energy is focused on the player, stunning them and inflicting 6.5 Shadow damage every 1 sec for 5 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 6.5 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 5 times over the full 5 sec (32.5 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It applies the stunned mechanic.

What it does

Death Lens is a Shadow spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 50 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura with the stunned mechanic. The client files the whole spell under the stunned 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.
