Binds the feet of all players, instantly applying 3 stacks of Arcane Lockdown for 20 sec. Each stack inflicts 4.82868 Arcane damage every 1 sec and reduces movement speed by 30%. Jumping removes a stack of Arcane Lockdown.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. The aura is spent after 1 procs.

Arcane Lockdown is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 4.8287 per tick. Its area radius is 100 yards. It ticks every 1 sec, 20 times over the full 20 sec (96.57 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -30. Its area radius is 100 yards.

What it does

Arcane Lockdown is an Arcane spell with a 2 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 5 sec cooldown and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 100 yard radius every 1 sec and applies an aura in a 100 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the snared mechanic. It stacks up to 3 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
