Description
The corpse nearest your target explodes, sending out a shockwave that deals 24...101 damage to all nearby foes.

Acquisition
Skill Quests: Skill Trainers:
 * Oberan's Rage (Sardelac Sanitarium)
 * Captain Osric (Yak's Bend)
 * Dakk (Ember Light Camp)

Usage
This Skill deals a large amount of damage to an area and can be recast quite quickly. This makes it particularly devistating in PvE, where enemy spellcasters tend to group together and not move. This Skill can be effective in turning the tide of battle when combined with Death Nova on a dying ally.

Even without any points in Death Magic, this Skill can be brought along to counter enemy Necromancers, as it is among the fastest-casting corpse exploitation spells available (Necrotic Traversal casts faster but has the often inconvenient effect teleporting the caster to the middle of the action) and can be cast after each death to rob enemy Necromancers of a corpse from which to raise minions or otherwise exploit.
