Terrifies all enemies in front of the caster, causing them to flee in fear for 4 sec.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Terrify is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 7. Its area radius is 40 yards.

What it does

Terrify is a Shadow spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 40 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the fleeing 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.
