A fool and her blessings are soon parted.

Dispel Magic is a priest class talent that removes one magical buff from an enemy target.

Tips and tactics

In the World of Warcraft: Trading Card Game.

• Dispel Magic chooses a buff at random. Many enemy players will often cast unnecessary buffs, such as [Water Walking], to reduce the odds that dispels will remove an important buff.
• Dispellable buffs on enemy targets will be illuminated to indicate that the priest is capable of dispelling them.
• More powerful buffs such as [Divine Shield] and [Ice Block] can be removed by [Mass Dispel], but not Dispel Magic.
• Some buffs (such as [Lifebloom]) will cause additional effects upon being dispelled; see Dispel Protection.
