How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 243750. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 20.
  3. Effect 3 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Detonate is a Fire spell with an instant cast and an unlimited range. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 243750) in an 8 yard radius and 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.
