How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 100. Its area radius is 300 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Detonate is an Arcane spell with a 20 sec cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Arcane damage (base value 100) in a 300 yard radius.

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.
