Life Leech  

I don't know what to think of this spell when compared to Lifedraw. When comparing them side by side there doesn't seem to be any real advantage with this spell. I suppose before they changed all the nukes Life Leech was pretty cool. But now when you consider the time and money that's spent (I spent well over 15 hours getting this spell) it doesn't really seem worth it. I say if you can get all the items easily without having to spend long boring hours farming, then by all means get this spell. If you don't have the resources available you're not really missing out.

one thing this spell has a long recast time gives me 8% hp back at 4k the zombie not hard took him down with a 66 necro 59 beastlord an me 56 sk he hits for about 180 Slyscythen 56 shadownight sullon zek (real men play here)

This is a very powerful spell if ya can get it early as I did, at lvl 51. The quest is a pain, its not easy nor cheap but it was very much fun.

Im pretty much twinked I did the Permafrost thing with me (51SK) and a 53 druid, invised up all the way to the Lady Vox area there is a small room there with an ice bear, kill it and thats your safe camp (spawns slow), up the small room there are two Terrors , pet pull em so you get singles.
I took em fairly easy with almost no heals (but again im very twinked) , they have a lot of hp.
My Prickly pear dropped on the second kill. ported outta there.

The zombie is well, freaking hard, I tried with the same druid, wich afterwards was a dumb but heroic move, I got killed. The zombie had one bub left, he got much hp and is yellow con to 51, white to 53. summons, fears, HT's and hits quiet hard (doubles, etc). Took em later on with a few more peeps.

Im very glad to have the spell, DONT UNDERESTIMATE the zombie.

The power of this spell is the lvl you "can" get it, at 51 its perfect really. And who's concerned about manacost these days as a (twinked) sk with C3 all the time ? + on pvp server one cast 280+ lifetap hard to resist is an added bonus for a long time.

Just have to say unlike most of the spells SK's get, this spell is actually worth having. Though it is a royal pain to obtain the components whether by buying or questing them, it is worth the headache. A point of warning though, Kazzel will not talk to you unless your fifty so take along a 50+ level evil friend to do all the turn in's for you, the spell is not a no drop so you dont have to worry about getting screwed out of 3k. Also after the Monstrous zombie spawns, Kazzel will aggro any good alignment members in your party, DO NOT KILL HIM drop the zombie loot and zone. If you make the mistake of killing him like my party did you are in for a 10 hour or better respawn and this is by no means enjoyable. Goodluck hope this helps

i'd love to get this spell but after looking at the quest it seems to hard for me... I think at lvl 56 or some other level high you get a better lifetap spell... thats just about 7 levels away... I also can to live without this spell... unless someone is selling it below 10k lol
