How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Halo is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179). Its base value is 6.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 395. Its base value is 40.
  3. Effect 3 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179). Its base value is 6.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 395.

What it does

Halo is a Holy spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 2.5 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and 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.
