How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 137714. It applies the knockbacked mechanic.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Disarm Self.

What it does

Return Spear is a spell with an instant cast and an unlimited range. It also casts Disarm Self.

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.
