Releases a massive burst of sonic energy that blasts nearby enemies with Nature damage, then inflicts additional Nature damage every 3 sec for 9 sec. While affected by Sonic Boom, enemy movement speed is reduced by 90%.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Sonic Boom is a Nature spell with a 5 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and a 7 sec cooldown.

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.
