A short-range shot that deals 50% weapon damage and disorients the target for 4 sec. Any damage caused will remove the effect.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 50. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5. It scales with 1 times spell power. It applies the disoriented mechanic.

What it does

Scatter Shot is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 15 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 50) and applies an aura with the disoriented mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
