Requirements Spell nature stranglevines [Entangling Roots]

Nature's Grasp is a buff that gives melee attackers a 100% chance of being afflicted with Spell nature stranglevines [Entangling Roots]. It is learned at level 10.

Notes[]

  • Procs off melee only, does not proc off spells or ranged attacks.
  • Entangling Roots can be resisted - so even when Nature's Grasp procs, it can fail to have an effect.

Tips and tactics[]

  • This spell is very useful against melee attackers in PvE or against Warriors and Rogues in PvP.
  • Activate this spell when running away. Often the attacker will be rooted and unable to follow.
  • This spell is also useful for gaining range against a Shaman to use Spell nature lightning [Innervate].
  • It is entirely impractical for raiding if the druid is not a tank, given that 1) the scariest mobs are immune, 2) the druid shouldn't aggro away from a tank, 3) the druid is not likely to survive a single hit from such a mob, and 4) a rooted mob will turn to attack other people in range, regardless of aggro, potentially killing others in addition to the casting druid.
  • Can be cast in any form.
