How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 70. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Explosive Impact is a Physical spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 70) in an 8 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.
