Net

How it works

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

Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. Its area radius is 10 yards.
Effect 2 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Net is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 7 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius. 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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 27 separate Spell records named "Net". This page is record #50762. 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.
