Hmm, there isn't a spell called Drainga is there?
However, skeletons have a skill called "Blood Saber" which does drain hp from all nearby targets.

I hate that skill >_<

Fought these guys in Sea Serpent Grotto last night, just near the entrance to Norg.

They weren't pushovers, but skeletons never are. Bring a monk for best results. Observed them using the following special attacks:

Hell Slash (single powerful attack)
Horror Cloud (AoE damage & blind)

Also saw the following spells:

Ice Spikes
Drainga
Sleepga
Bind

I assume that Hell Slash & Horror Cloud are dark-element based, but sadly the mages of Vana'diel haven't figured out Bardark/Barlight so you're pretty much SOL unless you want to load up on gear that has Dark elemental resist. So I guess just use Barblindra and hope for the best.

Ice Spikes is mostly an annoyance, same with Sleepga and Bind. Drainga, however, can turn the tide of a close battle. So keep these guys Silenced at all times.
