How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Arcane Protection is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 39.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 39.

What it does

Arcane Protection is an Arcane spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 2 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
