Ah, Source Vampirism works the same way? I already know that skill, but despite it having a very similar icon, I thought it's the wand's Purge, I have to use on the Shriekers (Source Vampirism has a shorter range though, I have learned it before helping the Seekers, or got it with an armor peace, or a scroll, not sure, so I had it, when facing those Shriekers before the fight with Alexandar, but couldn't reach them, until realising it's the "other purge skill" and selecting the correct one from the wand). Well, I managed to avoid the Shrieker in the cave using the teleportation gloves (I still have those since Fort Joy, although not using them much) and of course the pyramid to teleport to Fane (poor guy serves as a guinea pig of sorts). Also I was talking to the guide's spirit at the entrance, but despite what the Narrator said, I don't see any difference, I don't know the way through the whole complex, don't see the whole map, don't avoid traps automatically, don't know levitation (said something about moving through the air, disappearing in places and reappearing in others, well yes, there are some entrances, but I've found some of them prior to talking to the ghost). What have I gained then? I'm confused of what is the advantage here.

EDIT: It really works! But you still have to get very close, I just sneaked behind the Shrieker from the Waypoint (it activated along the way, when I used the gloves, I just teleported there to test it out). Good to know, that you don't have to rely on the Purge Wand so much, when dealing with Shriekers.
