How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 9425. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Explosion is a Frost spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Frost damage (base value 9425) in a 30 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 30 yard radius.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70268. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
