torment spells used by monsters

Wiki don't seem to tell me, so I'll ask here. How long is a range of a torment spell? I think it works like smite, so having one enemy in front of me wouldn't help me at all. But what about distance? Can mummies cast torment as soon as I'm in their LOS, or do they have to walk closer?

Torment hits everything in line of sight of the caster; there's no range restriction.

Re: torment spells used by monsters

One more question. Does torment halves the target's 'overall' hp or 'current'? If I have 100 hp and a mummy casts torment twice, do I die because I get 2*50 dmg or do I survive by having first 50 dmg and then second 25 dmg?

It's current HP. So if a 240 HP character gets tormented 4 times his HP go 120>60>30>15.

As Cerebovssquire explains above, Torment is pretty much the same as Demi from final fantasy games, only in DC:SS you can actually reduce its damage by 5% for every rN you have as far as I know. Statue form also gives a sizeable bonus to torment resistance and one +rN, I'm pretty sure, as well as worshipping Kiku (someone more experienced should explain better, I think).
