Necromancer spell - divest life

  1. Noticed today that Divest Life sometimes "linger" even after the mob you casted it on is dead. It shows up as a buff icon. Targeting any other mob while this icon is up, will automatically attack that mob with Divest Life.
    Also, the chance for Divest Life to heal party members for 30% doesn't show in logs afaik, so it's impossible to know if this proc actually works at all?
  2. I suspect this relates to the player-side functionality of this ability works. As far as I can tell, the issue arises with the player-side 'buff' component of DL not differentiating between a corpse and a living target. The target can die, and unless it's corpse erodes or turns into a non-corpse (e.g. becomes a skinning node), the ticks of DL continue, but as it doesn't have a valid target-side counterpart, it seems to respond by using your current target as the lifetap source.
    As far as I recall, the group heal component never showed in the logs. And to this day I'm not convinced it works.
