Grab

Tooltip

Charges and grabs a random enemy target, tossing them into the caster's slag pot. The target is unable to attack the caster and takes Fire damage every second for 10 sec. If the target survives, they are imbued with the magical slag, increasing their movement speed by 100% and haste for 10 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Grab is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 96, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is -999999.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Grab is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 90 yards, a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
