Strikes fear in the minds of enemies, inflicting Shadow damage and fearing targets of a targeted location for 3 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 250. Its area radius is 7 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its area radius is 7 yards.

What it does

Hysteria is a Shadow spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 250) in a 7 yard radius and applies an aura in a 7 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.
