Web

How it works

Each cast of Web costs 100 Energy. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It applies the rooted mechanic. Its area radius is 30 yards.
Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 22.3902 per tick. Its area radius is 30 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (111.95 base in total).

What it does

Web is a Nature spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the rooted mechanic in a 30 yard radius and applies an aura in a 30 yard radius every 2 sec. 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 15 separate Spell records named "Web". This page is record #229705. 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.
