The caster concentrates their gaze into an Ethereal eye and projects it at the target. When the eye lands it will create a zone of Lingering Gaze. Players who remain in this zone suffer 12.9174 Shadow damage each second and are slowed.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 12.9174 per tick. It ticks every 1 sec, 600 times over the full 10 min (7750.44 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 191. Its base value is 4.

What it does

Lingering Gaze is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 10 min. When cast it applies an aura every 1 sec 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.
