is mana syphon a stat i should be considering to get into to?

like not by its self but as a extra stat should it be one to look for or is it still pretty much useless and wont get me alot of mana?

so far ive just went with the

ee weapon
dex armor
str charm
ee heal

but wondering if mana syphon with some other stats would be a smarter choice?

thx you also i was wondering what is the best way to stat my hybrid monk?

all int or maybe only up to 50 base int then rest str or dex?

if it comes as a bonus i would get it

i would not depend on it

I find mana syphon to be very useful, but only as a secondary mod. If you've got a decent amount of it you'll be happy with it. But of course things like heal mastery and intelligence will probably be more useful but a little bit of mana syphon definitely won't hurt.

thx you guys for your answer i was considering buying a 28 stat leather armor with 8 lifesteal and 10 mana syphon but im not sure if that would be able to get me enough chains to really be satisfied

also how should i stat a hybrid monk for the max chains?

all int or only to a certain amount of int then rest str or dex?

the main point of stating into int is for the mana pool

not sure how the update changed this though

get a idea from someone else on this one
