How it works

It works on charges (charge category 133); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 175. Its area radius is 3 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 89.5. Its area radius is 3 yards.

What it does

Lightning Crash is a Nature spell with an instant cast and a range of 60 yards. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 175) in a 3 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.
