Entangling Roots

How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 250 per tick. It scales with 1 times spell power. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (1000 base in total).

What it does

Entangling Roots is a Nature spell with an instant cast, a range of 15 yards and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 2 sec. The client files the whole spell under the rooted mechanic.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
