Corpse Explosion

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Corpse Explosion is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it kills the target outright.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
