Notes

• Keep in mind that you will gain no energy if the target is already drained.

• The total energy gained is not high when the casting cost of Energy Tap is taken into consideration, but it has the added bonus of draining your target's energy as well.

Energy Gain

This presumes Energy Tap is cast as often as possible (activation + recharge time) before any activation/recharge time modifiers.
