Shoots webs at the target, inflicting Nature damage and rooting the target for 2.5 sec.

Web

How it works

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

Effect 1 is Weapon % Damage (effect type 31). Its base value is 125.
Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It applies the rooted mechanic.

What it does

Web is a Nature spell with a 2 sec cast, a range of 20 yards and effects that last 2.5 sec. When cast it deals a percentage of weapon damage (base value 125) and applies an aura with the rooted mechanic. 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 #440376. 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.
