Knockback

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 200. Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Knockback is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it has a Knock Back effect in a 30 yard radius.

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.
