    Hello fellow Avatars and Devs alike!
    @Elgarion

    I know this one might be a stretch .. but I don't think I'm the only one that thinks this skill could use a makeover. I feel like Death Ray is a little lackluster in terms of its animation and name. Sure, I understand that its name is a very literal definition of the current animation.

    Siphon Life, animation would be that of a red & black orb/glob that is taken from the target and travels to and splashes on the caster(think red & black Chaos Bolt in reverse).
    If that's too much .. I would even consider just removing the "ray" from the animation and essentially have the animation be a long-range Death Touch.

    I feel that these changes are a good way to give a much needed makeover to a rather clunky spell animation.

    As always, thank you for taking the time to look over and consider my suggestion.

    ...and the sound. Death sounds are mostly horrible. I can't describe the Death Ray sound, but when you use it in your main build it really is just unbearable after a session of playing - and, no, smart Alec's in waiting, turning off the sound should NOT be an option. Additionally, the Death Touch sound is a jarring <DONG!>. Sounds in general need a makeover.
