Sap

Sap is a rogue class talent that incapacitates a single target for up to 1 minute. It is automatically learned for Subtlety.
==Notes==
*Sap has a PvP duration of 8 seconds, and is subject to diminishing returns, in its own category.
*Sap does not have a chance to break early, always lasting the full duration unless the sapped target is hit. 
*Only works on Humanoids, Beasts, Demons and Dragonkin. (A good rule to remember is that it works on anything with a brain).
*Requires stealth, unless used with Shadow Dance.
*The target must not be in combat, and any damage caused will revive the target.
*Only 1 target may be sapped at a time.
*Despite the description, sap is not considered an incapacitate effect, but a sap effect.
==Tips==
*Sapping in a neutral town does aggro the guards.
*Sap is an effective crowd control technique. Don't forget to tell the party which mob you are sapping, as any damage breaks the effect.
*Sap does not cause threat, meaning that if you Sap a mob and then move out of normal aggro range, the mob will not attack you after the Sap effect is broken.
*Mobs that are Sapped won't be tagged as your kill until you deal damage to them. Be wary of other players stealing your kill.
*Sap can be useful in a PvP environment, to even out a 2-on-1, to take out a Shaman's totems before you fight them, to capture a flag quickly in battlegrounds, or even after a Vanish. Remember, like all crowd-control effects, Sap is limited to a reduced duration in PvP.
*Sapping a player of the opposite faction will turn on your PvP Flag. Be wary.
==Comparison to Paralysis==
Upon release, monks were given a crowd control ability called Paralysis. Like Sap, this causes an incapacitate effect up to 60 seconds long, but was considered a magical effect that could be reflected, grounded, or dispelled. In patch 5.2.0 it was made physical, increasing the similarity to Sap. This section compares the two.
===Advantages of Sap===
*No 15 second cooldown, aside from that imposed by Stealth/Vanish or Shadow Dance.
===Advantages of Paralysis===
*Can be used while the Monk or the target is in combat.
*Can be used on any creature type.
*Does not require a specific stance or form.
*Does not require a melee weapon.
*Reaches 10 yards farther.
*Costs 15 less Energy.
==Trivia==
*Sap is a basic Rogue spell in Hearthstone. The flavor text reads: "Rogues love sappy movies."
