Hex

Tooltip

Transforms the enemy into a frog. While hexed, the target cannot attack or cast spells. Damage caused may interrupt the effect. Lasts 6 sec. Only one target can be hexed at a time. Only works on Humanoids and Beasts.

How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 2. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 56.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 60.

What it does

Hex is a Nature spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the polymorphed 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.

The game client stores 76 separate Spell records named "Hex". This page is record #82760. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
