How it works

Static Discharge is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is -8.
  2. Effect 2 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Static Discharge is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 45 sec. When cast it restores a resource (base value -8) and has a Create Area Effect effect.

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.
