How to Quad-Kite Specters in Oasis

Something to know before starting:
One common misconception of hunting specters in Oasis is that they will life tap you. I can verify that they will not. The specters in the Feerott will life tap you though, so they aren�t as highly recommended.

Also:

I thought the spectre life tap only applied when getting hit by melee damage.

This is definitely not true; see the quoted part above. The reason quadding lifetapping specs isn't recommended is because, well, they can lifetap you. If it were just a proc or something that applied to people meleeing them, then that advice would make no sense.

It was either a special ability or an instant cast spell they would always cast. It also had about a 12 second refresh and they would very briefly stop attacking/moving to cast it.
