How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its area radius is 300 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 300 yards. It triggers Mushroom Toss.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 15. Its area radius is 300 yards.

What it does

Explosive Surprise is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 300 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 300 yard radius. It also casts Mushroom Toss.

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.
