Sacrifices the caster's life in order to inflict 28125 to 31875 nature damage to nearby enemies.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Explode is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 28125. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Explode is a Nature spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 28125) in a 5 yard radius and kills the target outright.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Classic Era client, build 1.15.9.70003. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
