Leech Attack, one of the Ancient Curses, boosts Attack by 5%, increasing to 10% over time. The amulet of zealots will increase the percentage to 10%, rising to 15% over time. It also drains enemy Attack by 10%, increasing to 25% over time.
The boost/drain of this spell will take anywhere from 2–3 minutes of continuous combat to maximize.
This can be useful against enemies who have high accuracy. Note that this curse is especially effective if stacked with Leech Defence.
Leech curses drain one opponent. Following each kill, the leech % resets, and %'s does not carry across opponents. You can drain 10%, rising to 25% of an opponent, and upon fighting a new opponent, this drain restarts at only 10%, to re-rise in time to 25% again. Player boosts of 5%, rising to 10%, do carry across, however, providing that the player is supplied with more drains to sustain the 5%+.
Trivia
- According to the ancient hymnal, Leech Attack's verbal incantation is "Reple me impetu hostium." (Fill me with the attack of my enemy.)
