Allies within 30 yards are shrouded in thorns, inflicting (50% of Spell Power) Nature damage to attackers.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 271, which the datamine does not name. It applies aura type 15. It scales with 0.5 times spell power and 0.5 times attack power. Its area radius is 30 yards.

What it does

Thorns is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and an effect that lasts until cancelled.

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.
