Tooltip

Summons an Oblivion Sphere near an player. The Oblivion Sphere charms all players within 5 yards.

While charmed, the sphere applies Annihilation every 2 sec.

Players remain under the sphere's control until they are knocked out of the sphere's area of influence. Attacking players under the effects of Oblivion Sphere will knock them back slightly.

When a player is freed, they trigger Crashing Oblivion.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 500 yards.

What it does

Oblivion Sphere is a Shadow spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster).

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.
