When activated, increases parry chance by 100%, reduces the chance ranged attacks will hit you by 100% and grants a 100% chance to deflect spells. Lasts 10 sec.

How it works

Deflection is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 47. Its base value is 100.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 287. Its base value is 100.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Deflection.

What it does

Deflection is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It also casts Deflection (record #92615).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 10 separate Spell records named "Deflection". This page is record #92614. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page.
