Summary
Mods "[MoM] Genericize Enervating Touch"
Purpose of change
The Vitakinetic power Enervating Touch currently relies on a bunch of invidiual overrides on a per-monster level and that isn't great. Also, it's now avoidable.
Describe the solution
Remove all overrides that exist only to make Enervating Touch work. Make Enervating Touch itself slap a -50% regneration penalty on the target (exactly what it did before) using the REGEN_HP enchant, which is checked for monsters.
Also, reduce the chance of Enervating Touch causing actual damage per turn but greatly increase its duration.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Testing
Spawned a shoggoth, channeled Enervating Touch on it, teleported away, and set HP to 200. One turn later, HP was 225 (the shoggoth normally regenerates 50 hp/turn).
