Grab

Tooltip

Charges and grabs a random enemy target, tossing them into the caster's slag pot. The target is unable to attack the caster and takes Fire damage every second for 10 sec. If the target survives, they are imbued with the magical slag, increasing their movement speed by 100% and haste for 10 sec.

How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 236. Its base value is 1.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Grab.

What it does

Grab is a spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Grab (record #62712).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
