Tooltip

Pulses arcane energy around the target enemy or ally, dealing (40% of Spell Power) Arcane damage to nearby enemies, and knocking them upward. A primary enemy target will take 100% increased damage.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 100.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). It scales with 0.4 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 150. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Supernova is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards and a 10 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Arcane damage in an 8 yard radius.

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.
