Upcoming changes to Leech

Why is life leech so bad?
Let's see, why do you we complain about moderation? Both answers: nothing is done about either. If they wanted to fix the life leech gem, they'd just put it back to how it used to be. If you wanted truly democratic moderation you'd rotate it for a few months and have people vote on their favorite most helpful mods to be elected for 1 year.

All this change does is make Life gain on hit obsolete.

Leech post 2.0 is garbage for most builds. Period

You are following what Blizzard did. Why?
Next you will prevent leech from undead mobs. (Blizzard did that) Last edited by haleabus#1813 on Sep 19, 2015, 1:28:16 PM

That would be nice. But, is leech ok for normal monsters or is too the needed investment for the pay off obtained?

" I agree on that, investing into (life) leech nodes seems so ineficient... Investing into regen is far better, because it's stable and doesnt stop when you stop attacking or at full life. And if one gets Vaal Pact (or Atziri's Acuity), all that "increased life leech rate" bonuses from LL nodes (and gem) will became useless. Leech mechanics itself is still OK, but LL nodes in the tree just SUCK! No one will invest points into them, they're just too weak. IGN: MortalKombat

Can anyone answer this question? plz
I'm planning on having a shadow with Chaos Inoculation and Ghost Reaver. But since life leech rate is based on the max Life and if I take CI which turns my max life into 1, will it mean that my life leech rate which is applied to the energy shield will be extremely low ? Or the leech rate will be based on the max ES instead ? |

" Very well said, agree with you guys. Melee and new life leech node super garbage and useless weak, need add to them %life or increase all stats (mods) on every node by 50-100% to make little more viable. |

" Ghost Reaver makes you leech ES instead of life, and your leech rate will be based upon max ES pool too. With CI or without. But i strongly advice you to take Vaal PAct in this case and leech instantly - since it will have no downsides for you (well, if you dont plan to use Zealot's Oath as well).

Leech feels garbage, getting 6-8 frenzies with The Blood Dance boots looks more efficient to regain your life.
