How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -25. It applies the snared mechanic. Its area radius is 99 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 193. Its base value is -25. Its area radius is 99 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 99 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 2 times over the full 4 sec.

What it does

Earthquake is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the snared mechanic in a 99 yard radius, applies an aura in a 99 yard radius and applies an aura in a 99 yard radius every 2 sec.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
