Tooltip

When activated, causes you to deflect melee attacks, ranged attacks, and spells, and reduces all damage taken by 50%. While Deterrence is active, you cannot attack and you have a 100% chance to reflect spells back at the attacker. Lasts 5 sec.

How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1448); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Deterrence is built from 7 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 184. Its base value is -100. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 287. Its base value is 100. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 264.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 25.
  5. Effect 5 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -30. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  6. Effect 6 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.
  7. Effect 7 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 77.

What it does

Deterrence is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

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.
