Kill 25 enemies with the life drain.
Gift(s)
- The drain deals bonus damage if Rose is at full health when it ticks.
- Getting hit while holding this spell doesn't interrupt it.
- The spell targets the 2 nearest enemies instead of just one.
Casting details
- Mana reduction
- Normal spell reductions can lower the starting mana threshold. The continuous channel cost is paid separately.
- Channel and target
- Hold the spell action. The beam seeks the nearest enemy in front of Rose.
- Mana exhaustion
- The channel is interrupted when its mana supply reaches zero.
Mana use and casting requirements
- Casting and mana
- Without reductions, starting requires 5 mana but does not pay that amount upfront. Channeling uses 20 mana per second at normal game speed and stops when mana is exhausted.
