How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Storm Bolt is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 4.4695. Its area radius is 60 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 60 yards.

What it does

Storm Bolt is a Physical spell with a 1 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 4.4695) in a 60 yard radius and applies an aura in a 60 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
