How it works

Mountain's Grasp is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 12 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 10 per tick. Its area radius is 12 yards. It ticks every 1.5 sec.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 27. Its area radius is 12 yards.
  4. Effect 4 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 20. Its area radius is 12 yards.

What it does

Mountain's Grasp is a Physical spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura in a 12 yard radius every 1.5 sec, applies an aura in a 12 yard radius and deals Physical damage (base value 20) in a 12 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the silenced 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.
