How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. Its area radius is 50 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 9 per tick. Its area radius is 50 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (45 base in total).

What it does

Entangle is a Nature spell with a 0.5 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 50 yard radius and applies an aura in a 50 yard radius every 2 sec. 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.
