Disarms an enemy, forcing it to stop wielding its weapon for 6 sec.

How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 3 sec after it is cast. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 67. It applies the disarmed mechanic.

What it does

Disarm is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards, a 20 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the disarmed mechanic. The client files the whole spell under the disarmed 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.
