'''Eyes of draining''' are floating organs which have no physical attacks. Instead, they attack the player by [[drain]]ing 10% of their current maximum health with each cast of their [[Draining Gaze]], which can be extremely dangerous if left unchecked. [[Negative energy]] resistance can reduce this to 5%, 2%, and 0% with rN+, rN++ and rN+++ respectively. They can be found mainly in the [[Slime Pits]], or very rarely in [[the Depths]].
