Ground Pound

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30. Its area radius is 15 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). It applies the interrupted mechanic. Its area radius is 15 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 75. Its area radius is 15 yards.

What it does

Ground Pound is a Physical spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 30) in a 15 yard radius, interrupts spellcasting with the interrupted mechanic in a 15 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 15 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.
