How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 250. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 149, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Reckless Charge is a Physical spell with a 2 sec cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 250) in a 10 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 10 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.
