What it does

Paranoia is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 200 yard radius and applies an aura in a 200 yard radius every 1 sec.

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.
