Useful Info
Eyes of draining are slow, floating creatures which have no physical attacks. Instead, they can make a gaze attack against you, irresistibly draining 5-17 MP, healing themselves in the process.
They are quite rare outside eye-infested vaults or the Slime Pits. But you may encounter them in midgame from Dungeon:8 downwards.
