Shield Bash

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.

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

Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 15.
Effect 2 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). Its base value is 15.

What it does

Shield Bash is a Physical spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 10 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 15) and interrupts spellcasting.

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.
