Hurls a boulder at an enemy.

How it works

Boulder is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 280. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). Its base value is 1. It scales with 1 times spell power. It applies the interrupted mechanic.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It scales with 1 times spell power. It triggers Knockdown.

What it does

Boulder is a Physical spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 5-30 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 280) and interrupts spellcasting with the interrupted mechanic. It also casts Knockdown.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70268. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
