Storm Shield

How it works

Storm Shield is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69. Its base value is 150000.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 1 sec, 604800 times over the full 168 hr. It triggers Storm Shield.

What it does

Storm Shield is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 168 hr. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 1 sec. It also casts Storm Shield (record #93060).

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 15 separate Spell records named "Storm Shield". This page is record #93059. They are not merged: each record can belong to a different difficulty, caster, rank or tuning, so each keeps its own page. The 12 records closest by id are compared here.
