ivandyr hoop out of range eat charges?

[syztem]

will this thing eat up charges if target is out of range? have tons of them from getting mallets, usually pass them out to be used and deleted or given to newbs after depleted. recently needed extra aggro, so we blew a hoop but he claimed no charges were on it(checked myself before handing, had 6 charges). when casted all I saw saw "soandso casting is interrupted" x6 in a row spammed, then nada. I don't really want to waste another one of these simply testing range so I figure here would be a decent place to ask.

Slow obv has a bigger aggro amount, how much would lifetap spam clicks give in comparison? half? quarter? or no real way to tell.

Ye it can happen with all clickies.

Root nets are the same way. Forget if it's lack of LOS or range that does it but can be annoying and will eat your charges. Agro I don't know for sure but 150 hp life tap is probably 150 or 300 hate depending on if it counts the healing portion.

edit: I don't believe slowstone amber has whatever makes it waste charges I can recall spamming it out of range and still having ful charges.

[skarlorn]

well, with melee, 1 point of damage = 1 point of hate

so i would assume that lifetaps are probably about the same in terms of hate generation.

You could test this by putting 1 charge of Midnight mallet into a mob, then seeing how many hoop charges it takes to pull aggro.

If you're out of line of sight the item won't lose charges. If you're in line of sight but out of range you'll lose a charge.
