Water Shield

Tooltip

The caster is surrounded by globes of water, granting 43 mana per 5 sec. When a spell, melee or ranged attack hits the caster, 170 mana is restored to the caster. This expends one water globe. Only one globe will activate every few seconds. Lasts 10 min. Only one Elemental Shield can be active on the Shaman at any one time.

How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is 170. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Water Shield is a Nature spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it restores a resource (base value 170).

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.
