Nature
ShamanTooltip
The caster is surrounded by balls of lightning. When a spell, melee or ranged attack hits the caster, the attacker will be struck for 51 Nature damage. This expends one lightning ball. Only one ball will fire every few seconds. Lasts 10 min.
How it works
Each cast of Lightning Shield costs 125 Mana. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its dispel type is client id 1. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. The aura is spent after 3 procs. It can proc at most once every 3.5 sec.
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 42. Its base value is 51. It scales with 0.267 times spell power. It triggers Lightning Shield.
What it does
Lightning Shield is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 min. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Lightning Shield (record #26545).
Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Classic Era client, build 1.15.9.70576. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
