Sends a wave of force in front of the ancient, causing 324 to 376 damage and knocking back all enemy targets within 30 yards.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 90. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 324. Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Shockwave is a Physical 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 and deals Physical damage (base value 324) 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.
