How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 12. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 193. Its base value is -50.

What it does

Wind Blast is a Nature spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 20 yards, a 6 sec cooldown and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 12) 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.
