Talk:Death Syphon (Origins)

I have noticed, on the Xbox360 version at least, that both Death Syphon and Death Magic do not function properly. The issue comes in when the user has either aura active and kills an enemy. On my console I have noticed that it can take a little while for a corpse to be ready to loot (i am assuming that the palyer cannot "use" the corpse until a certian function is run that turns the dead corpse into a container or such?). While waiting for this to take place (noticable that you cannot walk through a corpse that cannot be looted yet) the aura will not replenish your life or mana.

Example: I kill a Hurlock, and it falls down. a few seconds latter my mana has regenerated, and I can finally loot the corpse. The aura doesn't trigger because my mana was full. However, without moving I then cast a heal spell on a party member, and the corpse "evaporates" and my mana replenishes. This occurs whether or not the aura has been active for a while, or freshly active.

So it seems to me that if the player cannot yet loot the body (whether it actually dropped somethin or not) the aura cannot use the body either. 204.38.130.146 17:38, February 1, 2010 (UTC) Jeremy
