How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 96, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 90. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 10822. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Surge is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 45 yards and a 3 sec cooldown. When cast it has a Knock Back effect in a 10 yard radius and deals Fire damage (base value 10822) 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.
