Prismatic Barrier has no cooldown, but your mana is drained by 35% of the damage it absorbs.

How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 35.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 108. Its base value is -100.

What it does

Mana Shield is an Arcane spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). 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.
