I see. The problem I find with spells like those are that they cost a lot of energy. I like Life Siphon and Blood Renewal to last a bit longer. But I still don't know what i'm doing and that's the purpose of this thread.

Keep in mind Vampyric touch costs 10 energy. Warriors have low energy reserves.

PS. Try builds out, dont be afraid to spend refund points. You replenish them at 1 per each 250 xp you earn. Even once you hit 20. So put points where you want, and just experiment.

It costs 15, actually, and it is a really hefty investment to spend. But it does give a definate health shift. If you get Gladiator's equipment, you might have the max en to spend for such a spell. However, I would really look into learning how to use Curses. Alot of those will heavily benefit you (Weaken Armor, Mark of Pain, Barbs for offense, and Enfeeble, Insidious Parasite, Price of Failure, and Shadow of Fear for defense, and there's alot more). Curses might not do alot of frontloaded damage, but they can mean the difference between success and failure, especially in rough fights. And you'll find out how annoying they are on the other side when you have a bunch of them on you (gd Bog Skales >< ).
