Draws your target before you with a beam of unholy power. This will also taunt the target, forcing enemies to attack you.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 213, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Death Grip is a spell with an instant cast and an unlimited range. The client files the whole spell under the knockbacked mechanic.

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.
