ok, i have a question about mana syphon/life steal

I'm using an armor right now that has 5% mana syphon on it.  Now to my understanding mana syphon was much like mana steal in d2, i hit them........5% of my hit gets returned to my mana pool.
This is not even close to the case, so i figured ok, 1 out of 20 hits should return mana to my mana pool, you know 5% chance to syphon mana.  I watch my mana during wells that take a good amount of hits to kill and this is also not the case o.O O.o

I also noticed that with 6% lifesteal on Rex's MQ loaner sword, it wouldnt give me ANY life unless i hit for atleast 100 dmg, then it LOOKED like 6 life.

Main question:  Did Paul blow it real bad on these stats or am I confused on how this stuff works?


mana syphon works when tanking agaisnt mobs who use magic.
you have a % chance to get mana back when being hit by mobs its not when you attack. :P and idk about the lifesteal cuz when i went pure melee with my 125 ee sword with 7% lifesteal it didnt seem to give back much life at all


guys bump this plz whenever you can

@ Jordan

Mana syphon works when you get hit, not when you land hits. Currently there is no way to "leech" mana by attacking, only by tanking. You notice it a ton in catacombs when you are up front and everyone else is in mid/back, it actually works very well there.

Life steal has a chance to steal 1-x%, x being the stat on the item. So a 7% life steal item will steal 1% TO 7%, it used to be a static number but it was SUPER overpowered and got hit with the nerfgun.

I am unsure if it steals it every attack, or has a chance to proc, will do some researching for you when I get home. And yes obviously the more damage you do, the more you will actually notice it. I myself prefer life per attack / life per kill mods over life steal, unless you have really high life steal amounts. (there is a cap as well per tier I think)

Take a look at the size of it, then think where the blood may possibly have come from :evil:

Wow rex, nice work. You may want to consider selling the rune and skiller now if you do not absolutely need them, prices are still a bit nutty, but in a few weeks they will not be nearly as much. Just food for thought, keep up the good work.



Jordan, hop on aim if you want, I am on there and I will wait for ya to get in range. :D

Anyone else levels 27-33?
