How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 300.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 25.0037.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 144. Its base value is 300.

What it does

Blowback is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 300 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it has a Knock Back effect, deals Nature damage (base value 25.0037) and applies an aura.

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.
