Equip the Rift Device in your quick use items (e.g. where you placed your wands usually).

Select the Rift Device by clicking it once, then 'target' *whateveryoulike* by clicking on the target.

You will still need to hit *whateveryoulike* once to kill it. I think the Rift Device takes any creature down to 1 HP.

No, it takes the creature around to 10 hp if it is tough enough. Maybe it will kill someone weak like a peasant, never tried out. I use it only at UE, and still have to hit it hard enough to kill.

there are ways to avoid that...

its a ranged harm spell, ignores magic resistance, no save...works on dragons and liches, and probably anything in the game...

Use the Rift Device carefully, though, as it has a casting time and can be interrupted.

It's not just a Harm spell--it's a Spellstrike, Breach, then Harm, all in one. Yowza.

The gods don't take kindly to having cursed artifacts stolen. So...

If you take it with you in your inventory, you get a cute little message about how you were warned, and then you die.
