How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 50 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Burrow.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 140, which the datamine does not name. It triggers Burst.

What it does

Burst is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Burrow and Burst (record #1217998).

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.
