Quick Draw benefits from all talents and effects that trigger from or modify Sinister Strike.

How it works

Each cast of Quick Draw costs 25 Energy. Casting it triggers a 1 sec global cooldown.

Quick Draw is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 121, which the datamine does not name. It scales with 1 times spell power.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 33. Its base value is -50. It applies the ensnared mechanic.
  3. Effect 3 is Energize (effect type 30). Its base value is 1.

What it does

Quick Draw is a Physical spell with an instant cast, a range of 20 yards, a 10 sec cooldown and effects that last 6 sec. When cast it applies an aura with the ensnared mechanic and restores a resource (base value 1).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
