How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 254, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Lightning Charge is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 60 yards.

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.
