# Power Siphon [[Power Siphon]] is a wand attack skill that fires multiple projectiles which generate and have extra bonuses from Power charges. The projectiles have Culling Strike. ## Skill functions and interactions **Power charges**: Power Siphon gains extra Critical Strike Chance and Multiplier per power charge. Projectiles from this skill have a chance to grant a power charge on hit against rare or unique enemies. Projectiles also apply a short debuff to any enemies hit which grants a power charge to the user if they die. This will grant a power charge if the enemy dies from the hit as well. **Culling Strike**: All projectiles from this skill have culling strike, causing them to instantly kill enemies that have 10% or less life after being hit. **Dual Wielding**: Power Siphon will alternate wands while dual wielding. ## Version history <table class="table"><thead><tr><th>Version</th><th>Changes</th></thead><tbody> <tr> <td>3.26.0</td> <td> <li> Now has 90-105% Effectiveness of Added Damage at gem levels 1-20 (previously 140-159%), and now has an Attack Speed of 150% of Base (previously 115%). </td> </tr> <tr> <td>3.25.0</td> <td> <li> Now has a Mana cost of 5 at gem level 1 (previously 7), scaling up to 9 at gem level 20 (previously 11). <li> Now has an Attack Speed of 115% of Base (previously 100%). <li> Increases and Reductions to Spell Damage now also apply to Attack Damage from this Skill at 150% of their value. </td> </tr> <tr> <td>3.23.0</td> <td> <li> Now Fires Projectiles at 4-7 nearby Enemies, instead of firing 4-7 additional Projectiles. <li> Now has 10% more Critical Strike Chance per Power Charge (previously 20% increased), and +20% to Critical Strike Multiplier per Power Charge (previously 10%). <li> Quality now provides +0-10% to Critical Strike Multiplier per Power Charge, instead of 0-20% increased Damage. </td> </tr> <tr> <td>3.10.0</td> <td> <li>Now deals base damage and has an added damage effectiveness of 140% at gem level 1 (from 125%), up to 159% at gem level 20 (from 150%). </td> </tr> <tr> <td>3.3.0</td> <td> <li>Now has an added damage effectiveness and base damage of 125% at gem level 1 (down from 130%), up to 150.7% at gem level 20 (down from 160.4%). <li>Now has a mana cost of 7 at gem level 1 (down from 13), up to 11 at gem level 20 (down from 15). <li>"Now has 20% increased critical strike chance per power charge.
