Zen Meditation

Tooltip

Reduces all damage taken by 90% and redirects to you up to harmful spells cast against party and raid members within 30 yards. Lasts 8 sec.

Being the victim of a melee attack will break your meditation, cancelling the effect.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

Zen Meditation is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Area Aura (Raid) (effect type 65). It applies aura type 96. Its area radius is 30 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -90.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 106. Its base value is 10.
  4. Effect 4 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Zen Meditation.

What it does

Zen Meditation is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 3 min cooldown and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura to the raid in a 30 yard radius and applies an aura. It also casts Zen Meditation (record #131523).

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.
