How it works

Spells that share its cooldown category wait 20 sec after it is cast. It does not trigger the global cooldown, so it can be used between other casts.

What it does

Energy Siphon is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster), a 2 min cooldown and effects that last 20 sec. When cast it applies an aura.
