How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 4. Its area radius is 2 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 75. Its area radius is 2 yards.

What it does

Overload is a Nature spell with an instant cast and a range of 100 yards. When cast it has a Knock Back effect in a 2 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.
