How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Encasing Webs is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 138. Its base value is -100.

What it does

Encasing Webs is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the rooted 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.
