Inflicts Physical damage to an enemy, knocking them back.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 500.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98).

What it does

Headbutt is a Physical spell with a 0.5 sec cast, a range of 8 yards and a 2 sec cooldown. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 500) and has a Knock Back effect.

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.
