Vaal Detonate Dead

For the non-Vaal counterpart, see Detonate Dead.

Vaal Detonate Dead is a Vaal spell that explodes a corpse and all other nearby corpses in a chain reaction, dealing fire secondary damage.

Skill functions and interactions

Ascendancy interaction: This skill counts as consuming a corpse for the purpose of the Necromancer's Corpse Pact, Essence Glutton, and Plaguebringer ascendancy skills.

Version history

VersionChanges
3.19.0
  • Now has "Explosion deals base Fire Damage equal to 6% of the corpse's maximum Life" at gem level 1, up to 7.9% at gem level 20 (previously 9% at all gem levels).
    • 3.14.0
  • Vaal Skill Gems can now only be obtained from a set of specific methods such as Corrupting Gems, Vaal Side Areas, Divination Cards (that specifically grant Vaal Skill Gems) and the Lapidary Lens in the Temple of Atzoatl.
    • 3.6.0
  • Now deals 23 to 33 Fire damage at gem level 1 (from 15 to 21), up to 1395 to 2092 fire damage at gem level 20 (from 1235 to 1852).
  • Now has an added damage effectiveness of 200% (from 150%).
    • 3.3.1b
  • Vaal Detonate Dead can now be used by Totems, Traps and Mines.
    • 3.3.0
  • Would previously chain to other nearby corpses until there were no other nearby corpses left.
  • Now places a marker then detonates the nearest corpse, then after a short delay finds and detonates the next closest corpse in a large radius. It repeats this until there are no corpses in the large radius of the marker, or until it has detonated 22 corpses, with the delay growing slightly every time it repeats.
  • Now deals 15 to 21 fire damage at gem level 1 (up from 3-5), up to 1235-1852 at gem level 20 (up from 251-376), in addition to fire damage equal to 9% of the detonated corpse's maximum life (up from 8%).
  • Now gains 1% increased area damage per 1% gem quality (previously gained 1% increased cast speed per 1% gem quality).
  • Now prevents you from gaining Vaal souls for 8 seconds after use.
  • Now has an added damage effectiveness of 150% (up from 100%).
    • 1.1.0d
  • Vaal Skill soul counts were initially balanced for Merciless difficulty, where there are more monsters. We want them to be easier to use in Normal and Cruel difficulty. We have halved the number of souls required for each skill. In Cruel difficulty, skills require 50% more souls to uses. In Merciless difficulty, they require 100% more (which is the same as before the patch).
