How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12. It applies the rooted mechanic. Its area radius is 50000 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is effect type 164, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 92427. It triggers Paralyze.

What it does

Paralyze is an Arcane spell with a 0.6 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the rooted mechanic in a 50000 yard radius. It also casts Paralyze (record #92427).

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.
