Hurls a spear at one of Mel'jarak's warriors, incapacitating them for 50 sec. Any damage taken directly will cancel this effect.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Impaling Spear is a spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 50 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the incapacitated 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.
