Grab

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

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

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 43671.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Grab is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 60 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
