Lua error in Module:Item2/core at line 500: The "class_id" parameter is required..
Essence Drain is a spell that fires a chaos projectile that applies a damage over time debuff when it hits the enemy. The spell also regenerates a portion of the debuff damage as life. If target dies while afflicted with both Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Contagion". Please choose only one of the following ids:
ExileContagion - Deals (2.5-149.8) Base Chaos Damage per second, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this Skill's Damage Over Time effect, Base radius is 2 metres (page)
Contagion - Deals (3.5-235.9) Base Chaos Damage per second, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this Skill's Damage Over Time effect, Base radius is 1.7 metres, Spreads when affected Enemy dies (page) and Essence Drain, the remaining duration of both degeneration effects will be spread to nearby enemies.
Skill functions and interactions
- Damage over time: Modifiers to spell, projectile, chaos damage, and damage over time affect the damage over time component of this spell.
- Traps and Mines: Essence Drain can not be supported by Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Trap Support" and Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Remote Mine Support".
- Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this skill's Damage Over Time modifier also affects other damage over time effects created by this skill, such as poison or ignite.[1]
Strategy
The damage per cast of this spell is humongous, the damage it does per second is comparable to the damage of most spells and it keeps dealing damage (like with totems). Because this spell normally can hit only one enemy, it's not very useful alone unless the target is a boss or a player. However, it can be supported by Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Lesser Multiple Projectiles" or similar projectile support skills to hit more enemies at once and in the case of weaker monsters, Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Contagion". Please choose only one of the following ids:
ExileContagion - Deals (2.5-149.8) Base Chaos Damage per second, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this Skill's Damage Over Time effect, Base radius is 2 metres (page)
Contagion - Deals (3.5-235.9) Base Chaos Damage per second, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this Skill's Damage Over Time effect, Base radius is 1.7 metres, Spreads when affected Enemy dies (page) can be used to spread it to the whole pack and kill a lot of monsters just with two casts.
