Incapacitates a target not in combat for 1 min. Only works on Humanoids, Beasts, Demons, and Dragonkin. Damage will revive the target. Limit 1.
How it works
Each cast of Sap costs 35 Energy. Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. The aura is spent after 1 procs.
- Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 12.
What it does
Sap is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 10 yards and effects that last 1 min. When cast it applies an aura. The client files the whole spell under the sapped 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.
