How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 7.773.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -33. It scales with 1 times spell power. It applies the snared mechanic.

What it does

Grapple is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 4 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 7.773) and applies an aura with the snared mechanic. The client files the whole spell under the snared 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.
