How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 275.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 136, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 100.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 133. Its base value is 175.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56. Its base value is 100.

What it does

Volatile Eruption is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it 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.
