How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 12.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 10.

What it does

Surge is a Nature spell with a 1.5 sec cast and a range of 40 yards. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 12).

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.
