How it works

Shadow Prison is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 50000 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 40. Its area radius is 50000 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 50000 yards.

What it does

Shadow Prison is a 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 50000 yard radius.

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.
