How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is -7. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Screech is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 20 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the silenced 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.
