Earth Spike

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 3 sec after it is cast. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Earth Spike is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 8.8. Its area radius is 3 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 3 yards.

What it does

Earth Spike is a Nature spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 15 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 0.5 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 8.8) in a 3 yard radius and applies an aura in a 3 yard radius. 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.
