How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 10. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is 50. Its area radius is 5 yards.

What it does

Ground Pound is a Physical spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 10) in a 5 yard radius and applies an aura in a 5 yard radius.
