How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Drain Power is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 79. Its base value is -3. Its area radius is 60 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 61. Its base value is -5. Its area radius is 60 yards.
  3. Effect 3 is effect type 77, which the datamine does not name. Its area radius is 60 yards.

What it does

Drain Power is a Shadow spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 30 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 60 yard radius. It stacks up to 9999 times.

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.
