-'''Brain Feed''' is a [[smite]]-targeted monster-only spell which has a 33% chance to inflict 1d3 points of temporary [[intelligence]] damage on your character. Although this is normally just a nuisance, [[berserker]]s and other character builds with very low intelligence are at risk of [[stat zero]], and mages that are using spells they can just barely cast reliably may find themselves [[miscast]]ing at inopportune moments.
