Details
- Returns an empty table if the spell has no resource cost.
- Reflects resource discounts provided by auras.
- requiredAuraID has a return value different than zero for 36 spells. Most are spellIDs associated with a hidden healing/damage modifier spec aura, one refers to
[Bear Form], two seem to be connected to Helya; some are honor talents, and some don't refer to a valid aura spellID. This return value mostly exists for spells that change their cost depending on which spec the player is in.
- Some spells may have costs composed of multiple resource types. In this case, the
costs array contains multiple tables. For example, GetSpellPowerCost("Rip") returns
{
{type=3, name="ENERGY", cost=30, minCost=30, costPercent=0, costPerSec=0, hasRequiredAura=false, requiredAuraID=0},
{type=4, name="COMBO_POINTS", cost=5, minCost=1, costPercent=0, costPerSec=0, hasRequiredAura=false, requiredAuraID=0}
}
