How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1254); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Stormstrike.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Stormstrike Off-Hand.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Stormstrike.
  4. Effect 4 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Stormstrike is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 5 yards. It also casts Stormstrike (record #32175), Stormstrike Off-Hand and Stormstrike (record #195573).

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.
