Volatile Oblivion

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). It triggers Volatile Oblivion.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Anchor Here.

What it does

Volatile Oblivion is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Volatile Oblivion (record #1227767) and Anchor Here.

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.
