Inflicts 7.69317 damage to an enemy and its nearest allies, stunning them for 2 sec. Affects targets.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It jumps to up to 5 targets.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 7.6932. It jumps to up to 5 targets.

What it does

Knockdown is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura jumping to up to 5 targets and deals Physical damage (base value 7.6932) jumping to up to 5 targets. The client files the whole spell under the stunned 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.
