Water Shield triggers when entering Ghost Wolf: repeated reports
Several Shamans report a globe consumed without an incoming hit. They describe triggers from and other spells.
Status: Issue open, no confirmed fix. Current build at review: 1.60.1.70425. Authors omit their build.
Description
SHARKK_TOOTH showed triggering with . kayla-glick repeated it in game. JeromAsdert independently described the same result with other spells too. The current tooltip grants 2% maximum mana per globe from an incoming hit or a critical effect of the caster’s spell. It lists a 3.5-second cooldown. That wording does not explain a trigger from a normal transformation.
Effect
This is an unusual shield trigger without incoming hits. Exact frequency and benefit after the transformation cost are unknown.
How to reproduce it
- Learn and . Both tooltips require Shaman level 20, and the shield requires a talent.
- Apply . Outdoors, repeatedly enter and leave it.
- Several reports describe a consumed globe. Not every press produces a trigger.
What players report
- SHARKK_TOOTH
