 * - valign=middle

Description
For 15...39 seconds, your maximum Health is halved, but you take half damage from all sources. When Aura of the Lich ends, you're healed for 50...202 Health. This is an elite skill.

Acquisition

 * Hell's Precipice (Mission): Signet of Capture, Maligo Libens

Usage
This skill also works well with the many spells available in Blood Magic: the amount of HP you sacrifice is divided by four (halved for having less max HP, and halved again because it's damage), and many Blood skills allow you to heal yourself. This allows a wily Necromancer to sacrifice much more frequently.

In PvP play, this skill is excellent for melee necromancers with Unholy Feast and other skills that target nearby foes, because it also protects from AoE DoT smiting. Its ideal for all king of the hill maps.
