Expels pent up energy, smashing the ground and creating a shockwave which inflicts 167.927 Nature damage and knocks players back, destroying all Broken Shards. Players may stand behind Broken Shards to avoid Shockwave.

How it works

Shockwave is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 125. Its area radius is 200 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers spell id 236540.
  3. Effect 3 is Power Burn (effect type 62). Its base value is 100.
  4. Effect 4 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Shockwave.

What it does

Shockwave is a Nature spell with a 3 sec cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it burns a resource on the target (base value 100). It also casts Shockwave (record #210074).

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.
