How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. Its base value is 20.9512. It applies the stunned mechanic. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 20.9512. Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Detonate is a Shadow spell with a 10 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the stunned mechanic in a 30 yard radius and deals Shadow damage (base value 20.9512) in a 30 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.
