Orta unleashes a powerful roar, inflicting 30 Sonic damage to all players and knocking them back. The roar inflicts an additional 5 Sonic damage every 2 sec for 12 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30. It applies the infected mechanic. Its area radius is 100 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 5 per tick. It applies the infected mechanic. Its area radius is 100 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 6 times over the full 12 sec (30 base in total).
  3. Effect 3 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 100 yards.

What it does

Tectonic Roar is a Physical spell with a 3 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 30) with the infected mechanic in a 100 yard radius, applies an aura with the infected mechanic in a 100 yard radius every 2 sec and has a Knock Back effect in a 100 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.
