How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 5. Its base value is 10. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 30. Its area radius is 8 yards.

What it does

Volatile Eruption is a Holy spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 1 sec. When cast it applies an aura in an 8 yard radius and deals Holy damage (base value 30) in an 8 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the disoriented mechanic.

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.
