Notes

• Each rank requires you to have Entangling Roots of the same rank.
• Procs off melee only, does not proc off spells or ranged attacks.
• Only has one charge; Can only entangle one foe per casting.
• 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 [Innervate].
• It is entirely impractical for raiding, given that 1) the scariest mobs are immune and 2) the Druid shouldn't aggro away from a tank, and 3) the Druid is not likely to survive a single hit.
• Can also be cast in Cat, Bear and Moonkin forms.
