Energizes a Paladin with light, increasing melee attack speed by 25% and spell casting speed by 33% for 20 sec.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 65. Its base value is 33. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 319. Its base value is 25. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Blinding Light is a Holy spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
