ShadowTooltip
Counter an enemy's spellcast, preventing any spell from that school of magic from being cast for 7 sec.
How it works
Each cast of Shadow Lock costs 20 Energy. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.
- Effect 1 is Interrupt Cast (effect type 68). It applies the interrupted mechanic.
What it does
Shadow Lock is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 40 yards, a 24 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it interrupts spellcasting with the interrupted mechanic.
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.
