[Not a Bug] Cospri's Malice Failing to Leech
" The situation shown in the video was a recent one that explicitly mentioned using Warlords Mark, which is why I used the Warlords Mark values in the calculations. I checked using your character against Atziri with the Life Leech gem, and the results matched with what is expected. On average, discharge was dealing 12.4k damage per hit and with 2% leech from the gem this gives ~250 ES back per hit, which is what I was seeing in-game. If possible, can you provide a video showing your character in a situation where you believe the leech is too low? | |

@Jasno_GGG I really appreciate quick reply. I can do that after working hours, I' m from EU, that means ~8h from now.
However, take a look on Aim's video in the meantime from 2nd sec https://youtu.be/1NNVzcuOutQ?t=2 before he dies, so many charges have been exploded, non of them leeched a thing. This is more or less what we are experiencing and referring to. I can't figure out how can I approach bosses then, If I don't have LL as melee ES based build, there are no ES flasks, I'm left with kiting and waiting for ES recharge, if I'm lucky enough to not die in a fraction of a second. Before 2.4 patch it was like a night and a day, never had such issues with any CoC discharge or CoC non-discharge build. Last edited by ojejku#1220 on Sep 15, 2016, 3:18:19 AM

" That's him dying to the double strike boss's reflect. When he's on fire, he starts reflecting damage. You can't leech through that amount of reflect. |

First of all as far as I remember it reflects only fire dmg, we deal massive ammount of lightning dmg. Secondly, it was only a showcase what we mean.

I just feel like the leech is highly inconsistent. perhaps we're not doing the damage we think we are. I'll experiment with adding in ele weakness and running warlord's mark and see if it improves at all.

I want to draw you guys' attention to this uber ran https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NboaBzNh358 by ssMETALURGss
You can easily discriminate between the damage of discharge against single vaal and that against twin vaals. And you can see his struggle during the split phase. Let's face it boys. Overall, discharge is the best spell to use with this weird sword. But its single target damage fluctuates wildly-in other words, sucks. |

" The thing is, it's still 100 ms cd. If Mjolner can outleech it with 500 ms cd, something is off. Arc, for comparison, does 35-886 damage at level 20. This means that discharge breaks even at 2,5 charges if we include the damage reduction for triggers. 3 charges do more than an arc. Now let's add the endurance charges and we got an issue. Especially with the much more often trigger of cospri's. And I'm pretty sure that Mjolnir builds don't reach the same crit mult as cospri's builds. It just feels wrong on every level. There's been people who have been playing discharge for ages. They know how it is, they know what to expect from a 35% damage drop and it's not this terrible.

" Mjolner has a 100ms cooldown as well. " It deals Fire damage to you, yes, but it triggers off all Hits taken. It's Lightning Thorns with fire damage. A showcase still needs to account for all relevant factors, and Reflect is a huge factor here. Last edited by Vipermagi#0984 on Sep 15, 2016, 6:52:33 AM

More I play my cospri's toon the more I'm convinced that leech problem is due to discharging without max charges. Using other cold spells is kinda similar because they do way less damage than discharge. Have to figure out a way to increase charge generation on single target and do some testing to be sure.

"check my character out (SoberandIrrelevant) on my profile. made some changes running dual curse assmark/warlordsmark and put in BV/CoC on my Voll's, hitting bosses near max charges every hit, leech seems to be much improved. Last edited by mill3nia#2665 on Sep 15, 2016, 10:15:23 AM
