Death Grip

How it works

Death Grip is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 11. Its base value is 800.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 114, which the datamine does not name.

What it does

Death Grip is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the taunted 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.
