While in Bear Form, Cat Form, Dire Bear Form, or Moonkin Form, you gain 3 additional base Armor per level and another 1.2 base Armor for each point of defense skill beyond five times your level. This amount can be further increased by multipliers from those forms.

How it works

Thick Hide is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 100.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 3.

What it does

Thick Hide is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). 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.
