Talk:Taste of Death

Judge's Intervention?

If this will kill a minion, but they are enchanted with divine/judge's intervention, will they be saved? Wouldn't be a bad spike to use this on a minion enchanted with judge's intervention and death nova, then putrid flesh. Barkingllama 08:12, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't think life stealing is affected by divine intervention; only direct damage would trigger that. so no, I don't think it will work. Wandering Traveler 18:17, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

According to Judge's Intervention it does "Combine well with minions". So perhaps at some point it'd work. --Elvoran 19:12, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Hm... wouldn't this have been good with the old Necrobomb? 1/4 cast time, no recharge. Or does this jswut not work if you have no minion? 72.222.217.198 04:06, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Was there an undocumented update for this skill? I no longer have to switch targets to a minion to trigger this skill, it seems to steal life from the closest minion now, if no minion was targeted. Instead of getting the "Invalid Target" message. 69.129.199.244 07:00, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Underrated skill?

This skill is seriously underrated because it is overpowered. Good for AB and CM, great hard healing in the expense of a minion.--71.191.59.25 19:13, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Hero Usage?

Anyone know how well heroes use this? If they limit themselves to only using it in dire circumstances or whether they spam it to regain 10HP instead of waiting on a monk? Darke 07:20, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

They use it well iirc, not necessarily only dire situations but not to gain 10 health. --ஸ Kyoshi 07:41, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

My hero doesn't use this skill at all...

I've tried with this build (ofc having in the party a Minion Bomber hero too): Soul Reaping=8+1 Blood Magic=9+1+3 Death Magic=6+1 Curses=5 Restoration Magic=11

Even disabling all the hero's restoration skills, Taste of Death was never used. --Aria Frost 13:13, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
