: Corpse Explosion

Effect: The targeted corpse explodes, damaging all nearby enemies.

If you want to make a big mess, Corpse Explosion is the skill for you. Once dubbed "The Best Skill of All Time" by Blizzard Employees, Corpse Explosion is a favorite among many. Corpse Explosion is great for clearing out crowds of monsters very quickly. All you need to destroy large groups monsters is a body, and to lead that group of monster near that body. Explode the corpse to create a new corpse, continue to use Corpse Explosion until there is nothing left. Minions and Bone Spells can help you create an initial corpse to use, then you just have to lead the monsters near the bodies when you cause them to explode. As you put more points into Corpse Explosion you can hit monsters further away from the corpse. Be warned that as you put many points into Corpse Explosion you start to get less of a return so don't over spend in Corpse Explosion. Often a few points will get the job done. Try Wands that give +1-3 to Corpse Explosion to see what you'll get from more skill points before spending them.

Corpse Explosion does 50% Physical damage and 50% Fire damage. Monsters that are resistant to Fire will take less damage.
