WarriorTooltip
Sends a wave of force in front of the warrior, causing damage and stunning all enemy targets within 10 yards in a frontal cone for 4 sec.
How it works
Each cast of Shockwave costs 15 Rage. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.
Shockwave is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It applies the stunned mechanic. Its area radius is 10 yards.
- Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1. Its area radius is 10 yards.
- Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 50.
What it does
Shockwave is a Physical spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 20 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the stunned mechanic in a 10 yard radius and deals Physical damage (base value 1) in a 10 yard radius.
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.
