How it works

Arcane Barrier is built from 4 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 393. Its base value is 200.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 150. Its base value is 200.
  3. Effect 3 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 51. Its base value is 200.
  4. Effect 4 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 414. Its base value is 200.

What it does

Arcane Barrier is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 8 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.
