This skill allows the Necromancer to literally suck the life from his victims. The Necromancer is able to reach into the wellspring of mortality and siphon off its essence, consuming it to replace his own.

Effect: Attacking a cursed soul gives you health.

When Cursed are damaged, the attacker gets healed 50% of attack damage.

@ bolded: If they are immune to physical damage, they don't take damage, so Life Tap won't work on them, otherwise, even skeletons will heal back 50% of the damage taken.

Okay that makes sense but what about non-PI undead?

Are PIs the only ones who cannot be tapped?

No. There are other objects and monsters that cannot be cursed - lightning spires, catapults, etc. I don't remember the full list.

I've been really busy, so not much time to play. But I'm progressing some. Hopefully through normal by the end of the long weekend.

I was thinking about izParagonzi's comments about different ele damage. And I've considered some alternate builds for you all.

Sacrifice + Holy Freeze

20 - Sacrifice
20 - Holy Freeze
20 - Res Cold
20 - Redemption
1 - Zeal (skeles)

Sacrifice + Conviction [A convictionist without zeal basically.]

20 - Sacrifice
20 - Conviction
20 - Redemption
20 - Holy Shield
1 - Zeal (skeles)

Current plan is to stick with the original build concept. This is a mass update of all of Act 1.

And so it begins ... again.



First bang bang stick.



Not going to lie. This damage makes Act 1 pretty silly even on P8.

That's right. Stand right there. In the corner.



This was so nice in A1 cutting damage to self in half.



Always, and forever, the Arctic Furs

Raven



Cain



Wrong build. This is the ultimate fire zealer weapon. Throw Tir + El in this and use it until NM.

Countess was in one of the screwed up maps that gets turned 45 degrees so she's in the hallway and not the chamber.




Upgrade!

I don't know why I gambled this. I think I was looking for a -10 AS weapon



But look at the damage for A1.
