Deals 65625 to 84375 damage to all enemies within a 20 yard cone in front of the caster, knocking them down.

How it works

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

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 65625. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Overhead Smash is a Physical spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 2 sec cooldown and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 20 yard radius and deals Physical damage (base value 65625) in a 20 yard radius.

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.
