Void Backlash
Void Backlash, the Equip effect of a Mail Chest item, is unchanged in WoW Forever: the client ships the same tooltip as Classic Era. Its tooltip reads: "This item is infused with the raw power of the Void. When the bearer is attacked this item has a high chance of inflicting a terrible curse, causing the attacker to take additional damage from all sources for 15 seconds." Instant cast. The client lists that item without its name or tooltip.
