Template:Tooltip MagicBuff
Places a damage shield on the Warlock and any party members within range (30 yards).
The shield does Fire damage to any enemy who hits a protected person. One thing to note is that, as with any fire damage, mobs can resist it and it will not work on fire-immune mobs.
Fire Shield can be set to auto-cast; when this is set, the Imp will cast Fire Shield whenever a party member is a victim of a melee strike, if it isn't already up. The Imp can even cast Fire Shield if the the commanding Warlock is under attack and mounted, a situation where pets are normally unable to act.
The buff also overwrites other damage shields such as the Druid spell [Thorns]. Warlocks should consider turning off auto-cast if a more powerful buff is available.
Fire Shield will not unphase the imp in the same way that [Dark Pact] doesn't unphase the imp.
Some Infernals possess a variant of this spell. The buff periodically causes Fire damage to any nearby enemies.
