How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Dummy (effect type 3). It triggers Barrier.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3). It triggers Barrier.

What it does

Barrier is a spell with a 2 sec cast and a range of 100 yards. It also casts Barrier (record #286104) and Barrier (record #286103).

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.

Multiple client spell records exist

The game client stores 22 separate Spell records named "Barrier". This page is record #286163. 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.
