  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). Its area radius is 500 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 134372. Its area radius is 500 yards.

What it does

Screech is a Physical spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 500 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 40.8886) in a 500 yard radius and interrupts spellcasting in a 500 yard radius. It stacks up to 99 times.
