How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 25 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 500. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 20 yards.

What it does

Earthquake is a Physical spell with a 4 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 500) in a 20 yard radius and applies an aura in a 20 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.
