Tooltip

A sandy explosion deals Nature damage and reduces chance to hit for 5 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 24. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is -25. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Sand Trap is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 24) in an 8 yard radius and applies an aura in an 8 yard radius.

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.
