Calls lightning down to electrocute an enemy, inflicting Nature damage and additional Nature damage. for 9 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 125.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 10 per tick. It ticks every 3 sec, 3 times over the full 9 sec (30 base in total).

What it does

Electrocute is a Nature spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 40 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 9 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 125) and applies an aura every 3 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.
