How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -30. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Fear is a spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the fleeing 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.
