The dots (shadow word pain, devouring plague) and the power word shield are priest spells.

Ok, I think I saw those dots as debuffs on the cat’s health bar. For the power word shield, I see a lot of abilities/spells on the right side of the screen. Maybe he clicked on one of those for the effect. I think he’s playing a priest class to use the spell.

As broader context, most spells in WoW trigger a 1.5 second global/shared cooldown, giving wow a tempo where you’re often doing one spell every 1.5 seconds and choosing which one to do and what order to do things.

I was seeing like a timer or refreshing effect on most of the spells/abilities on the screen. Im thinking that’s probably from the global cooldown.

I also think then that when Hydramist used power word shield, it was part of wow’s spell tempo. He was choosing which spells to do and what order to do things. The order for the section of gameplay would be dots then shield.
