Spell Lock

Tooltip

Silences the enemy for 3 sec. If used on a casting target, it will counter the enemy's spellcast, preventing any spell from that school of magic for an additional duration.

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 27. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Spell Lock is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 3 sec. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the silenced mechanic.

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.
