How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 370.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 1000.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 200.

What it does

Overcharge is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 300 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
