Issue
The usefulness of this skill is hampered by it's life sacrifice, spell cost, and short duration. Plus, it's married to physical damage. Making it more useful with it's current functionality would make it over powered.
Suggestion
Functionally change it to: For 1...5 seconds, damage done by all members of your party is converted to shadow damage. Reduce life sacrifice to 10%. Add recharge timer of 10 seconds. Of course, if you just wanted to make the spell more useable make these adjustments to it's current functionality: increase duration to 5...15 seconds, caster bleeds for 5...3 seconds, increase damage to 15...20, reduce life sacrifice to 10%, reduce casting time to 1 second, increase energy cost to 15.
