Throws a spear at an enemy, inflicting Physical damage.

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 135.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Devastating Throw.

What it does

Impaling Spear is a Physical spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and a 5 sec cooldown. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 135). It also casts Devastating Throw.

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.
