Uses of quantum leech ability.  It is very good against both small ships and the enemy BC. Against a small ship the Destroyer will drain it of all energy (except maybe other destroyers) and force the enemy ship to cut engines due to lack of power, it will generally make small ships unable to fire back.  this is especially devastating to miners and wraiths as they require a lot of energy to escape but do not have a lot of energy reserves so even 1 projectile can render them vulnerable.
Hitting just one projectile on an enemy [[Small Ships|small ships]] can be devastating and leave the ship defenseless.
Against an enemy BattleCruiser it is generally best to use in a BattleCruiser V BattleCruiser Fight. As BattleCruisers are usually dumping a lot of energy for the fight,it helps when energy is drained and gives your battlecruiser durability to survive longer and ultimately win the fight!
However the true power of the Quantum Leech is in [[Battlecruiser]] battles, where [[Energy Console|energy management]] is a large factor. As Quantum leech projectiles hit the enemy Battlecruiser, energy is drained from the battlecruisers [[Energy Console#Capacitors|energy capacitor]] which means the longer the fight goes on, the more projectiles that will hit and the more energy that the enemy will lose.


Unlike the [[Chroniton Torpedoes]], Quantum Leech is always in effect and dose not need to be activated.

Quantum leech augments each Quantum Bombardment projectile with a passive 200 energy drain, and changes the projectiles color to light blue. This makes the Quantum Bombardment volley of 5, drain 1000 energy if all projectiles hit. This energy drain can be increased by upgrading Quantum Bombardment, which improves the drain by 150 per projectile, per upgrade level.

Hitting just one projectile on an enemy small ships can be devastating and leave the ship defenseless. However the true power of the Quantum Leech is in Battlecruiser battles, where energy management is a large factor. As Quantum leech projectiles hit the enemy Battlecruiser, energy is drained from the battlecruisers energy capacitor which means the longer the fight goes on, the more projectiles that will hit and the more energy that the enemy will lose.

Unlike the Chroniton Torpedoes, Quantum Leech is always in effect and dose not need to be activated.
