Summons a wave to sweep away enemies, inflicting 50.378 Nature damage and stunning for 2 sec.

How it works

Crashing Waves is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 50.378.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Crashing Waves is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 50.378) and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under 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.
