Learn the following spell.

Tether your soul to an ally for 60 min, redirecting 20% of their damage taken to you as Shadow damage. This effect can be used on up to 5 allies. Recasting on a tethered ally or moving further than 100 yards away removes the effect.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4.

What it does

Soul Tether is a 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.
