Targeting and features

Living enemy mouseover → Living enemy target → No eligible target: no cast

Mouseover

Requirements

  • Learned Drain Life; the source records its first rank at level 14. Each higher rank must be learned separately.

Known limitations

  • Research-supported design for beta 1.60.1.70009; no recorded in-client macro tests. English spell names require localization on other clients.
  • The first matching target branch wins; an out-of-range, line-of-sight, immune or otherwise invalid recipient does not fall through to another target.
  • While a player channel is active, guarded casts do nothing. To change channel or target immediately, stop the channel manually; this is not a proc, resource or rotation decision.
  • Damage and healing depend on the spell completing against a valid enemy; this does not choose a safe health threshold.

Notes

  • Spell IDs identify the sourced first-rank reference; unranked names request the learned rank selected by the client. A spellbook tab is not a specialization lock.
  • Talent and level records are provisional beta extraction, not proof of spell acquisition.
