How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1.3674. Its area radius is 7 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Summon (effect type 28).

What it does

Detonation is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Shadow damage (base value 1.3674) in a 7 yard radius and summons a creature.

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.
