Soul Explosion

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3).
  2. Effect 2 is Dispel (effect type 38).

What it does

Soul Explosion is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it dispels effects.

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 10 separate Spell records named "Soul Explosion". This page is record #10828. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page.
