  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 10. Its area radius is 5 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is Dummy (effect type 3). Its base value is 5.

What it does

Ensnaring Trap is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect and deals Physical damage (base value 10) in a 5 yard radius.
