How it works

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

  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 50. Its area radius is 3.5 yards.

What it does

Boom is a Fire spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 20) in a 3.5 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 3.5 yard radius.
