Description

L19 Necro pulling "blue" con Tomb Raiders on Salisbury Plains.
L12 power drain spell costs 8 power to cast, does 62 damage, returns 16 power to me.
L18 power drain spell cost 11 power to cast, does 94 damage, returns 16 power to me.
Power returned should be 50% of damage done, right?
As a result, I've resorted to using the L12 spell as it's more efficient, power-wise.

Reproduction Steps

1. Create a level 19 Necro
2. Go to Salisbury Plains and pull a Tomb Raider with a L12 power drain spell (Puissance Vacuum)
3. Take note of how much power is returned to you
4. Pull a Tomb raider with a L18 power drain spell (Energy Vacuum)
5. Take note of how much power is returned to you

Intended Behavior

According to Nixian's Charbuilder, 50% of damage done should be returned to the caster as power.

Evidence

Nixian's Charbuilder states that 50% of damage done by the power drain spell is returned to the caster as power.
Considering that the power returned was the same - regardless of which power drain spell was used - necros are clearly not benefiting from using a higher level spell.
