Rocket Launch

Tooltip

Fire a powerful rocket at the enemy that does damage and stuns them. This thing has quite a kick though...

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Rocket Launch.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Knockdown.

What it does

Rocket Launch is a Fire spell with a 3.5 sec cast, a range of 45 yards and a 1 min cooldown. It also casts Rocket Launch (record #71590) and Knockdown.

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.
