Exposes all hidden and invisible enemies within the targeted area for 20 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 41.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 41.

What it does

Flare is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 20 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.
