Explosive Toads

Explosive Toads is a rune effect in Plague of Toads, a Physical Realm Witch Doctor skill.

This rune effect changes the toads to fire damage. They move at the same speed and direction, but gain a fiery red and orange color, and the damage increases from 130% to 169% weapon damage.

This is one of the Witch Doctor's most effective spell attacks in the early going, with two toads from each cast fairly likely to hit any larger monster. Casting a good carpet of these out for incoming enemies to encounter will deal huge damage. The relatively short range and slow speed of the toads is the main limiting factor on the killing power.
