How it works

Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown. Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met.

Vampiric Touch is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 2.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 53. It scales with 0.1775 times spell power. It ticks every 3 sec, 8 times over the full 24 sec.
  3. Effect 3 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is 600.

What it does

Vampiric Touch is a Shadow spell with a 1.5 sec cast, a range of 40 yards and effects that last 24 sec. When cast it applies an aura, applies an aura every 3 sec and restores a resource (base value 600).

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.
