Ferociously spins his weapon, inflicting 200 Physical damage to all enemies.

How it works

Obliterate is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 200. Its area radius is 20 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Instakill (effect type 1). Its area radius is 20 yards.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Obliterate is a spell with a 3 sec cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it has a Knock Back effect in a 20 yard radius, kills the target outright in a 20 yard radius and applies an aura.

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 36 separate Spell records named "Obliterate". This page is record #149312. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
