Bodyswap

Bodyswap is a spell skill. The skill can target an enemy or a corpse, exploding your body and teleporting you to the target. The skill creates an area of effect explosion that deals fire damage, which scales with your maximum life. When targeting a corpse, it deals more damage and the corpse also explodes to deal damage relative to the corpse's maximum life.
