Void Orb

Tooltip

players can redirect the orb by touching it, causing the orb to drift in the direction they are facing.

If the orb touches a non- player, they suffer. If the orb touches Queen Azshara, a ritual obelisk, or the edges of the chamber, it triggers and redirects from that location.

When the orb touches an open portal it is consumed by the Void, dispersing harmlessly.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Void Orb is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster).

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.
