Gouge

Tooltip

Attempts to gouge the eyes of his target, Incapacitating them for 6 sec. If the target is facing away, it will knock them back instead.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 227.152.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.

What it does

Gouge is a Physical spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 227.152) and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the incapacitated 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.
