Most all of the skills/spells in Riftwalker guild are useful and balanced, but
Dimensional Leech seems really underwhelming.

Just a couple ideas to make it more useful. Simple one would be to turn it
into an area rift pulse type spell and it could cost 1 spark per target.

Another idea is to keep it a channel spell and have it drain life of the target
and feed to the entity. If your going to try and go toe to toe with a mob and
take blasts/interupts you need some damage mitigation. Just my 2 cents.

As an aside. Love the guild. Great job Moss!

Dimensional leech is very powerful, admittedly only really usable for long
runs. Another problem you missed; quick chant doesn't effect it (same problem
with all channelled spells). It has been criticized before, and got an uptune
(yes it was worse than it is now!). I believe offensive channelled spells need
looking at in general, as they clearly don't work well.

I will think more on changing dimensional leech, but for now it remains as is.
