Charges an enemy, inflicting normal damage plus and stuns the opponent for 2 sec.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 96, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Weapon Damage (effect type 58). Its base value is 750. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It scales with 1 times spell power. It applies the stunned mechanic.

What it does

Charge is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 8-25 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it deals weapon damage (base value 750) and applies an aura with the stunned mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
