Drains the life from an enemy, inflicting 11.1951 Shadow damage every 2 sec and increases Haste by 10% for 20 sec.

How it works

It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts. Its dispel type is client id 1.

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

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 11.1951 per tick. It ticks every 2 sec, 3 times over the full 6 sec (33.59 base in total).
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. It ticks every 2 sec, 3 times over the full 6 sec. It triggers Drained Essence.

What it does

Drain Essence is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards, a 12 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 2 sec. It also casts Drained Essence.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
