How it works

Explosive Sheep is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers spell id 3617.
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Explosive Sheep is a Fire spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Fire damage in a 5 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.
