How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 18.
  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68).

What it does

Wind Shear is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 50 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 18) and interrupts spellcasting.
