The target becomes a Living Bomb, taking 16 Fire damage over 12 sec. After 12 sec or when the spell is dispelled, the target explodes dealing Fire damage to all nearby enemiess.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1.

Living Bomb is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4 per tick. It ticks every 3 sec, 4 times over the full 12 sec (16 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 12 sec. It triggers Living Bomb.

What it does

Living Bomb is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 35 yards and effects that last 12 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec and applies an aura every 12 sec. It also casts Living Bomb (record #82885).

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.
