Ascalon Settlement; Captain Greywind. Shame is an automatic interrupt, and can be very useful IF you time it well, because it has a 2 second cast time, so it isn't instant.

I don't know about spikers, but echo this against a monk and you'll really cheese him off. 24 mana drain...how much do monks have max, anyway?

You could also combine it with mark of subversion.
those two spells can ger really nasty.

Evox, you're speaking about Guilt aren't you? Shame is to stop casting on friendly targets while Guilt is stopping the casting on hostile targets.

I have a couple questions regarding shame.

First, what counts as a "friendly target"? For instance, if you cast contemplation of purity with shame on (not really a target, although it does effect an ally) does shame block it?

Second, when does shame activate? If you cast shame in the middle of another spell (for instance, you get shame on you in the middle of a holy veil) is that spell then interupted, like spellbreaker does?

Contemplation of Purity isn't a spell, so it'd work. To be honest though, I'm not sure about auto-targeted spells.
