Default Re: Life Drain

The Standard of the Damned casts the Drain Life spell, a ranged, 100 precision life draining attack with fixed damage. Since this attack is technically a spell, there's a chance it won't work when opponents are in melee range. Other lifedrain weapons perform life draining melee attacks, modified by strength and other enhancers such as Astral Weapon or Weapons of Sharpness. Big difference.

Also note that lifedrain doesn't just steal HP(I forget how much of the damage done is drained, and how high over your base HP you can go. Can't confirm the above number, though it seems to make sense), it also drains fatgue, making it incredibly useful against creatures that <i>just won't die</i>, and haven't got reinvigoration. Life drain weapons will still inflict fatigue damage on lifeless creatures, although no HP or fatigue will be transferred to the wielder.
