How it works

Each cast of Thunder Clap costs 20 Rage. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Thunder Clap is built from 5 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). It scales with 2.3568 times attack power. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 30.
  4. Effect 4 is Energize (effect type 30).
  5. Effect 5 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Thunder Clap is a Physical spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and a 6 sec cooldown. When cast it deals Physical damage in an 8 yard radius and restores a resource.

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.
