No. There's only 1 point of difference between drain+3 and magic+1, and the difference on the battlefield is unnoticeable. OTOH with the latter your Dusk Elders are worth 4 more research points (7 instead of 3), and that's huge. Ermor can't afford building Skull Mentors as it needs the gems for its summons. Whoever claims drain is essential for Ashen Empire hasn't tried it with a magic scale yet.
Research+9 Skull: Amethyst*10
Dusk Elder Research+7(Magic 3): Amethyst*23
SO,Ermor COULD afford building skulls.
I have tried both drain-3/magic-3 scale.
The magic one is better when you choose magic(revive elders at the start).
The drain one is better when you choose might(revive bishops at the start).
