Inflicts Physical damage and interrupts spellcasting for 3 sec.

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 3 sec after it is cast. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 75.
  2. Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). It applies the interrupted mechanic.

What it does

Pummel is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards, a 10 sec cooldown and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 75) and interrupts spellcasting with the interrupted mechanic. The client files the whole spell under the interrupted 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.
