How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Health Leech (effect type 9). Its base value is 3.6794. It jumps to up to 3 targets.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 114, which the datamine does not name.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11. Its base value is 400.

What it does

Throw Axe is a Physical spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 25 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it drains health from the target (base value 3.6794) jumping to up to 3 targets and applies an aura.

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.
