How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 95000. Its area radius is 80 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It applies the stunned mechanic. Its area radius is 80 yards.

What it does

Shockwave is a Physical spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 45 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 95000) in an 80 yard radius and applies an aura with the stunned mechanic in an 80 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.
