Upon reaching 100 energy, Vexamus explodes with overwhelming power inflicting 16 Arcane damage to all players and pushing them back. Fissures erupt multiple times at player locations, each inflicting 30 Arcane damage.

How it works

Arcane Fissure is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 100 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 16. Its area radius is 100 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179). Its base value is 80.
  4. Effect 4 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Arcane Orb.

What it does

Arcane Fissure is an Arcane spell with a 3 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 0.5 sec. When cast it deals Arcane damage (base value 16) in a 100 yard radius and has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Arcane Orb.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
