What it does

Slow is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the snared mechanic. It stacks up to 50 times.

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.
