Deals 150 Fire damage and causes a significant knockback on all nearby players.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 144, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 150. Its area radius is 7 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 175. Its area radius is 7 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 86, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 5 yards.

What it does

Detonation is a Fire spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 175) in a 7 yard radius.

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.
