How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 5. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Explode is a Nature spell with a 2.5 sec cast and a range of 5 yards. When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 5) in a 5 yard radius and kills the target outright.

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.
