How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Manic Dread is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its area radius is 300 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 3 per tick. Its area radius is 300 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 10 times over the full 10 sec (30 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 191. Its base value is 2.5. Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Manic Dread is a Shadow spell with a 3 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 300 yard radius and applies an aura in a 300 yard radius every 1 sec. 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.
