How it works
Each cast of Holy Shield costs 150 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 4 procs.
Holy Shield is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 51. Its base value is 30.
- Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 43. Its base value is 65. It scales with 0.05 times spell power.
What it does
Holy Shield is a Holy spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 10 sec cooldown and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura.
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.
