An unnerving screech strikes enemies in a cone in front of the caster, increasing all damage taken by 10% and reducing movement speed by 50% for 8 sec.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 10. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Terrifying Screech is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards, an 8 sec cooldown and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 30 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.
