Counterattack

Tooltip

A strike that becomes active after parrying an opponent's attack. This attack deals damage and immobilizes the target for 5 sec. Counterattack cannot be blocked, dodged, or parried.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 48. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It scales with 1 times spell power. It applies the rooted mechanic.

What it does

Counterattack is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 48) and applies an aura with the rooted 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.
