Explode

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Explode is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 2.5 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius.

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.
