Stomps the ground, dealing 925 to 1075 Physical damage to nearby enemies, knocking them up.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 925. Its area radius is 12 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 12 yards. It ticks every 0.7 sec. It triggers Knockup.

What it does

Ground Slam is a Physical spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 925) in a 12 yard radius and applies an aura in a 12 yard radius every 0.7 sec. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic. It also casts Knockup.

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.
