How it works

Tidal Crash is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Tidal Crash.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Exhausted.
  3. Effect 3 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 9.7162. Its area radius is 6 yards.
  4. Effect 4 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 150. Its area radius is 6 yards.

What it does

Tidal Crash is a Frost spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 9.7162) in a 6 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 6 yard radius. It also casts Tidal Crash (record #154208) and Exhausted.

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.
