How it works

It works on charges (charge category 1255); 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.

Water 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 30.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 20. Its base value is 4 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 4 times over the full 8 sec (16 base in total).

What it does

Water Shield is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 8 sec. When cast it applies an aura and applies an aura every 2 sec.

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.
