How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 12000. Its area radius is 3 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.

What it does

Explosion is a Fire spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 12000) in a 3 yard radius and applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
