Volatile Magma

Tooltip

The caster periodically creates a zone of Volatile Magma at the location of a nearby player, inflicing Fire damage to all players of the impact.
After 2 seconds, the zone becomes so Volatile that it will explode if any creature comes in contact with it, inflicting Fire damage to all of the caster's enemies.
If a player triggers this explosion they will take 50% more damage from further explosions. If a creature triggers this explosion then all of the caster's enemies are affected in this manner.

How it works

Volatile Magma is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 300. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Hatch Eggs.

What it does

Volatile Magma is a Fire spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 10 min. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 300) in a 5 yard radius and has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Hatch Eggs.

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.
