Notes
- Being an elemental shield, Lightning Shield cannot be used at the same time as
[Earth Shield] or [Water Shield]. It is however possible to use Water Shield or Lightning Shield on yourself while Earth Shield is up on another target. - It uses the lightning animation instead of the normal nature animation.
- Each charge receives 33% of spell damage.
- The damage caused is considered direct damage, though it cannot crit.
- It was used as a template for the Troll Priest's Shadowguard.
- Each charge will consume a charge of the [Zandalarian Hero Charm]'s Unstable Power aura.

Talent improvement
- [Improved Lightning Shield] can increase damage done by this spell by {5/10/15%}
- Lightning Shield, as an instant cast spell, gets mana costs reduced by {2/4/6%} and spell damage increased by {10/20/30%} of your attack power, from [Mental Quickness] talent.
Tips and tactics
- You may want to use Lightning Shield if facing a tougher opponent than you.
- Lightning Shield can cause large amounts of unwanted aggro. Be careful when using it in groups.
- Only one Elemental Shield can be active on the Shaman at any one time, so choose wisely.
