How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 165, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 25. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Self Destruct is a Fire spell with a 4 sec cast and a range of 30 yards.

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.
