Training in [[#Lore Benefit|Elemental Lore, Air]] provides a chance for the target to be groggy if awakened.
The spell formerly had a variable mana cost equal to the target's level divided by two. The minimum mana cost was one mana, while the maximum mana cost was twenty. If this spell was activated from a magical item, it would not affect targets higher than level two. If invoked from a scroll, the spell would take one mana from the scroll, and the remaining mana will be taken from the caster.


Sleep is considered a [[:category:Attack Spells|spell of war]].
However, the spell was changed in October 2007, and the following news was released in-game:

Sleep does not follow the standard [[mana]] cost of its spell level, but rather a scaling cost based on the the target's [[level]] and is equal to the seed 1 [[summation]] against the target's level, capped at 5.

When imbedded by the [[Magic Item Creation (420)]] spell or charged by the [[Charge Item (517)]] spell, Sleep counts as a level 8 spell to emulate the variable mana cost for different targets.
The mana cost of the spell has been changed from 1 mana per 2 levels of the target, capped at 20 mana to a summation seed 1 based off of the target's level. That is, a level 1 target costs 1 mana whereas a level 105 target costs 14 mana. This mana cost grows at a much slower rate than the previous one.


<small>Note: The restriction of only being able to use Sleep cast from a magic item on a level 2 target has been removed. Also, when casting Sleep from a [[scroll]], the spell will no longer take mana from the caster.</small>
The duration of Sleep was previously determined solely by the level of the caster. Duration is now based off of the warding margin (endroll).
