Hero Usage[edit]

  • Heroes only use this skill on their own minions, when under 50 % health.

Notes[edit]

  • As with all life stealing, this skill can only heal you for the amount of health that the target has left. As such, be sure you target a minion with plenty of health if you need the healing effect.
  • Can be combined with Death Nova, although Putrid Flesh may be preferred in that regard.
  • The health of minions follows the formula health=level*20+80, so the life stealing is a guaranteed kill on minions with level equal to your level of Death Magic+1, unless the minion's health has been increased by Spawning Power.
    • Assuming a caster both summons the minion and steals health from it, and stays at the same Death Magic rank while doing so, the minion is guaranteed to die if it was a jagged horror or a bone minion. Any other minion (except Star Servant or Flesh Golem) will die if the caster is at rank 7 or less in Death Magic, and be left with maximum 20 health at higher ranks. Flesh Golems will lose around 70% of their health.
      • Can be used with Jagged Bones as a steady source of jagged horrors.
      • Using Aura of the Lich will spawn a bone horror and then increase the Death Magic rank by 1, effectively allowing to kill the summoned bone horror from full health at any Death Magic rank.
