Anyone knows how to mod a life drain effect on a weapon? (like a wraithblade)
Haven't seen it listed in the secondaryeffect table on the modding manual, and my attempts at guessing the id number for this effect didnt work out (but i'm gonna try more numbers later on).

Get the weapon id for life drain from Edi's database. That should work as a secondaryeffect number.

Oh i see, so the weapon id for life drain used as a weapon (like a vampire or a horror has) is the same as the id number for life drain used as a secondaryeffect? I'll give a try later on, thanks for the advice

Life draining weapons generally don't use the secondary lifedrain effect since dom2. They have a special damagetype (much in the same way as holy weapons) that is less powerful.

A weapon with the old life draining function is a lot more powerful, than the current lifedrains, but as long as you are aware of this it shouldn't pose any problems. Nothing wrong with a powerful weapon or two.
