  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). Its base value is 75. It triggers spell id 41967.

What it does

Mindbender is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards, a 1 min cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it summons a creature.

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.
