Slayer's 'Endless Hunger' questions

what is the current max life leech? will the +5% make a big impact?
if i kill mobs without losing life, will i start gaining life in 3 minutes time when I am against the boss?
will it persist between zones?
Do 'while leeching' effects work even if I'm at full life and still technically 'leeching'?
This looks just as OP as the fortify and spell block ascendency nodes.

Unmodified max leech rate is 20% of your max life per second, so yes, it's a big increase.

It doesn't store the leech for later. If just means that if you reach full life, then lose life again before the leech effect would normally run out, it keeps healing you as if you'd never hit full life. Each individual leech effect is still not going to last very long. My assumption would be that it wouldn't persist between zones either, although this would almost never be relevant.

Can't answer that one with certainty, that sounds GGG only. That said, my guess would be yes.

It certainly looks better than the fortify one (although I wouldn't call that OP, or even strong). Honestly, I think free Unwavering Stance is the biggest deal here. But man, that spell block is still pretty damn ferocious, even though they are targeted at very different builds.

No, they normally end when you reach full life, that's what endless hunger is for.

The question is specifically referring to what happens while you have Endless Hunger allocated. So is my answer.

Ah, right, we agreed there, misread it.

How would Endless Hunger 'while Leeching' work for instant leech using acuity or VP? Or would the leech effects and stun immune not work since leeching is instant?

guys.. these ascendancy perks will change several times from now on. just do not theorycraft stuff based on some pre-pre-pre-release material. youll be dissapointed when the real thing hits

just remember blasphemy's 25% reservation

You are stun immune as long as you leech. How long does an instant leech take? How long will you be stun immune?

Endless hunger (when buit properly) turn your Life Leech into sort of Life Regen. 38% per second.
