How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 225000. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Static Overload is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 225000) in a 5 yard radius and applies an aura in a 10 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.
