If I have life leech with physical damage, but 100% of my physical damage is converted to elemental, the life leech will not have effect?

Correct, but note that a lot of leech sources are now general attack leech instead of just physical leech.

Hi, I was wondering if you could explain how shield charge speed works. With low increases to attack speed, it seems slower than walking, even with the 75% increased movement speed on the gem, most likely because the animation is extremely slow without attack speed. Is there any chance you could give an exact formula/explanation how shield charge speed/animation works?

I don't want to argue much about the following being good or bad and I post this question here instead of a separate thread.
Does the automated piano macro allowed?
Meaning that I press 1 button for a macro which makes me drink 1 flask, than after a 0.25 sec delay it drinks the 2nd flask for me and so on with the same delay with all the 5 flasks.

No.
I'm curious about why not.
Can GGG detect that the delay between flask uses would always be the same?
I don't want to ask specific details about how they would do that, but if they ever gave any, than please share the source.

You are only allowed to use macros which perform one server-side action for one user input. The macro you talk about does 5 actions with a single key press, thus it is not allowed.

We have no way of knowing, and GGG surely won't reveal their detection methods - that would only make them easier to avoid. Regardless, whether or not GGG can detect it, that macro is not allowed.

just get a bar of plastic and place it over 12345 so you press the bar and all 5 get pressed so you're technically not using a macro just pressing 5 buttons at once lel
Hi! i have a question about summon raging spirit with united in dream that when the poison kills the corrupted blood bloodlines mod i get a corrupting blood does that mean i get the kill? because my summon raging spirit is linked with item quantity support so it doesn't work?

Coincidentally, I have a question to SRS with poison as well. If my Spirits poison an enemy, does that DoT damage get amplified by a Witchfire Brew flask?
