The Unbound Abomination absorbs all damage taken, converting it into Blood Energy. Upon reaching full energy, all of the blood is consumed, creating several Blood Visages.

How it works

Blood Barrier 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 245297.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 402. Its base value is 5.

What it does

Blood Barrier is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it applies an aura.
