Player mana pools are calculated based on a base mana pool plus a certain amount given by the Intellect stat. This is the default power type for most non-player units, although there are exceptions. As of {{Legion-inline}} Legion, mana is used by Druids, Mages, Mistweaver Monks, Paladins, Priests, Shamans and Warlocks.

			:;SPELL_POWER_FOCUS = 2 : [[Focus]] is used by Hunters and hunter pets. Focus goes from 0 to 100, and has a slow regeneration rate, but certain abilities will generate focus.

Rather, runes are managed through the RUNE_POWER_UPDATE event via the GetRuneCooldown() API call.

			:;SPELL_POWER_LUNAR_POWER = 8 : {{wl-inline}} [[Astral Power]] (Lunar/Solar) is used by Balance Druids . It goes from 0 to 100, and its use as solar or lunar power is determined by what buff is active on the player.
			:;SPELL_POWER_HOLY_POWER = 9 : [[Holy Power]] generated by a few Paladin abilities and consumed by a few others. Can range from 0 to 5 and degenerate out of combat.
			:;SPELL_POWER_ALTERNATE_POWER = 10 : Appears to be used by some bosses. Does not appear in Blizzard UI code.

			:;SPELL_POWER_CHI = 12 : {{wl-inline}} [[Chi]] on the Monk's unit frame, who gains between 0 to 4 Chi points (6 Chi points with Ascendance selected) through the use of certain class spells while required in varying numbers to use other class spells and do not degenerate over time.
