How it works

Each cast of Shield Block costs 60 Energy. It works on charges (charge category 1385); the charge count and recharge time live in a client table the datamine does not carry, so they are not stated here. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 51. Its base value is 100.

What it does

Shield Block is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 6 sec. 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.
