Power Siphon

Skill Functions and Interactions

Culling Strike causes monsters to die if you strike them down to 10% or less life.

Dual Wielding: Dual wielding attacks with Power Siphon will alternate the weapon being fired.

It is not possible to gain more than one Power Charge per attack even if Power Siphon is linked to Lesser Multiple Projectiles or Greater Multiple Projectiles and kills multiple enemies.

Power Siphon is classified as an Attack and will benefit from x% increased Attack Speed but not from x% increased Casting Speed.
