How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. It applies the fleeing mechanic.

What it does

Frightening Shout is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 15 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the fleeing mechanic. 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.
