Immobilizes nearby enemies for 10 sec. and inflicts Physical damage.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. Its area radius is 10 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 877.046. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 10 yards.

What it does

Hooked Net is a Physical spell with a 0.5 sec cast, a range of 30 yards and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 10 yard radius and deals Physical damage (base value 877.046) in a 10 yard radius. 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.
