Afflict your target with Rotting Roots dealing Nature Damage every 2 seconds for 6 sec. New stacks do not refresh applied stacks.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 285. It triggers Rot.

What it does

Rot is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Rot (record #1244332).

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.
