Generates a Force Field that will protect nearby units from the effects of Exposed Core.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 395.
  2. Effect 2 is Dummy (effect type 3).

What it does

Force Field is a Holy, Nature, Shadow and Arcane spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled. 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.
