How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 142.743. Its area radius is 15 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Meltdown is a Nature spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Nature damage (base value 142.743) in a 15 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.
