Soul Link is a warlock spell that redirects damage from the warlock to the minion. It's not dispellable, and the mitigation is applied after all other sources.
Notes
Edit
If a Warlock's demon is Banished, this effect will be removed until the demon returns. The druid spell Cyclone also temporarily suspends the Soul Link effect when cast upon a demon

Patch 4.0.1 (2010-10-12): No longer a talent. It is now a trainable spell.
Patch 3.0.2 (2008-10-14): Shared damage increased to 20%. Bonus damage removed. Shared damage reduced to 15%. Moved to tier 3.
Patch 2.1.0 (2007-05-22): Adjusted tooltip to explain that the damage transferred to the pet cannot be prevented. The functionality remains unchanged. This ability will now work with enslaved demons.
- Patch 1.8.0 (2005-10-10):
- Percentage of damage split with pet has been reduced.
- Is now a spell cast on your pet that gives an aura to both you and the pet. This aura increases all damage caused by you and your pet by 3% and splits 30% of all damage taken by the caster to the pet. The aura will last as long as the pet is active, and the pet must be the target of a dispel effect in order to dispel this ability.
Formerly redirected 50% of all damage and lasted for 30 seconds, but was dispellable.
- Patch 1.7.0 (2005-09-22): Fixed a bug where Soul Link and Power Word: Shield, when used together, would heal the Warlock instead of splitting or absorbing damage.
