How it works

Each cast of Thundershock costs 75 Mana.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 6.7887. It scales with 2 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards.

What it does

Thundershock is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 5 yard radius and deals Nature damage (base value 6.7887) in a 5 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
