Roots the target in place for 30 sec. Damage may cancel the effect. Target's chance to hit reduced by 80%.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 455.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 54. Its base value is -80.

What it does

Entangling Roots is a Nature spell with a 1.7 sec cast, a range of 35 yards, a 15 sec cooldown and effects that last 30 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.
