Tooltip

The caster is surrounded by an unholy shell, reducing incoming Magic damage by 100.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is -100.

What it does

Anti-Magic Shell is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 30 sec cooldown and effects that last 15 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
