Slams the ground in the direction of a targeted player, inflicting Physical damage to all players in a line and knocking them back.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Devastating Slam is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 300. Its area radius is 40 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 80. Its area radius is 40 yards.

What it does

Devastating Slam is a Physical spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and a 3 sec cooldown. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 300) in a 40 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 40 yard radius.

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.
