How it works

Shield Bash is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 87. Its base value is 25.

What it does

Shield Bash is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it deals Physical damage (base value 8000) and applies an aura. It stacks up to 5 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
