Despite what the description suggests (specifically the 'slowly' part) Deathly Swarm functions like any other ranged spell. Like Chain Lightning, Deathly Swarm hits the primary target first and then moves on to hit the second and third targets, however, unlike Chain Lightning, there is a 1 second delay between each target and the next.
Because Deathly Swarm hits multiple targets but only hits them individually, the enemies will not flee as they will with AoE spells.
This Spell can be good for minion masters who are starting in an area and don't have enough minions to do sufficient damage.
