How it works

Knock Away is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 12.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 150.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Knock Away is a Physical spell with an instant cast and a range of 10 yards. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 12) 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.
