How it works

Avalanche is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 300. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Hatch Eggs.
  4. Effect 4 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). Its area radius is 5 yards. It triggers Petrification.

What it does

Avalanche is a Physical spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 300) in a 5 yard radius. It also casts Hatch Eggs and Petrification.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
