How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 43, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Fatal Attraction is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 0.1 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.
