Fixate

Tooltip

Causes an enemy to fixate upon the caster and increases the caster's attack speed by 30% for 5 sec. While the caster is fixated upon the target, the caster is very reluctant to attack anything else.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is 30.

What it does

Fixate is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 5 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.
