Inflicts Shadow damage to an enemy and reduces its movement speed for 10 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 750 per tick. It scales with 0.1 times spell power. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (3750 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -20.

What it does

Mind Flay is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 35 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the ensnared mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Burning Crusade client, build 2.5.6.70006. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
