Charges an enemy, inflicting damage and stunning the opponent for 2 sec.

How it works

Charge 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 School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 12.5.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It applies the stunned mechanic.

What it does

Charge is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 8-25 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 12.5) and applies an aura with the stunned mechanic.

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.
