Gouge

Tooltip

Inflicts 10 damage to an enemy and incapacitates it for up to 4 sec. You will automatically stop attacking. Target must be facing you. Any damage received by the stunned target will revive it.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 10.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Gouge is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 10) and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the incapacitated mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70531. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
