How it works

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 69. Its base value is 4758.09.
  2. Effect 3 is effect type 0, which the datamine does not name. Its base value is 25.

What it does

Reflective Shield is a 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.
