Gouge

Tooltip

Inflicts 6.2015 damage to an enemy and stuns it for up to 4 sec. You will automatically stop attacking. Target must be facing you. Any damage received by the stunned target will revive it.

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 6.2015. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Gouge is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 6.2015) in an 8 yard radius and applies an aura in an 8 yard radius. 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.
