How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 2775. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 35 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Knock Back (effect type 98). Its base value is 150. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 35 yards.

What it does

Fire Nova is a Fire spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 2775) in a 35 yard radius and has a Knock Back effect in a 35 yard radius.

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.
