Detonates causing damage in an area.

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 200. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Detonate is a Fire spell with an instant cast and a range of 5 yards. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 200) in a 10 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.
