How it works

Explosive Trap is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Explosive Trap is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and applies an aura.

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.
