How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Missile (effect type 32). Its area radius is 40 yards. It triggers High-Explosive Rockets.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 203, which the datamine does not name. It triggers High-Explosive Rocket.

What it does

Launch Rocket is a spell with an instant cast and a range of 60 yards. When cast it launches a missile in a 40 yard radius. It also casts High-Explosive Rockets and High-Explosive Rocket.
