What it does

Mana Drain is an Arcane spell with a 2.5 sec cast, a range of 100 yards and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 3 sec, applies an aura every 1 sec and applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the stunned mechanic.

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.
