Ice Barrier is a mage spell that shields the caster for up to 60 seconds, absorbing damage similar to a priest's Spell holy powerwordshield [Power Word: Shield] spell. The shield absorbs physical, magical, and most environmental damage (fall damage is not absorbed.) Damage from DoTs such as poison is also absorbed. The total amount the shield can absorb is increased by 10% of the caster's frost spell damage.

While shielded, spells do not lose casting time due to push-back interruption. However, debuffs such as snares, Spell frost iceshock [Counterspell], and Ability priest silence [Silence] still pass through.

Ice Barrier stacks with the mage spells Spell shadow detectlesserinvisibility [Mana Shield], Spell fire firearmor [Fire Ward], and Spell frost frostward [Frost Ward], as well as other damage shield spells such as Spell holy powerwordshield [Power Word: Shield].
