Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Drain Power is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is 2.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is 1.

What it does

Drain Power is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura. It stacks up to 999 times.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
