Huh? You don't have to be a blizz insider, it's basic logic and common sense. Top end health pools are around 50k, so it's safe to assume that we won't be hitting eachother for 50k. We probably won't be 2 shotting eachother either, so I think we can go lower than 25k. I think taking 5 hits to kill eachother is still unreasonable, but lets use it for a moment. Max life leech is 9% (barb only). That means a 10,000 damage hit, with no inferno penalty, will return 900 life. That's the BEST case scenario. You can get 1800+ life on hit from your weapons alone. So one of three things is going to happen:
1. We're going to run around 1 shotting eachother, in which case life leech/life on hit are both worthless (very unlikely, blizzard will implement a straight up damage reduction in pvp to prevent this)
2. Life leech and LoH are disabled in pvp (also unlikely, considering JW said in the recent pvp blog that "We want to be able to carry over as many of the crazy runes, items, and skills as possible, with their crazy effects, and alter them as little as possible")
3. Life leech and LoH are both enabled as they currently stand, and we're not 1 shotting eachother in pvp (in which case under EVERY scenario, life on hit is better)
No it isnt
top end health pools can reach way more than 50k
you are forgetting AR / armor
lifesteal might still be better if you use skills with crap proc rates

Well no shit, sherlock.
Incorrect. Please dont try and argue with me when you can't even get the basic facts right. Why don't you put LoH and a socket into the butcher's sickle search field and see what comes up cupcake?
you and other people already preparing for pvp and acting like they know what will work and wont look so stupid, you have no idea.

Are you fuckng serious?
Why would you use spear of the ancients then?
Clueless kid
Since hota or bash/cleave/frenzy deal more % weapon dmg than axe throw its not that stupid
Proc has cooldown?
''Why would you use spear of the ancients then?'' ---> I dont lol
and yes it has internal cooldown, genius
''Clueless kid'' --> right back at you
point is you have weapon throw slot, which is ranged, and you want to pull enemies to you, after which there are better single target dps skills
not to mention i dont think you will be able to pull back dh's with ss, monk with serenity, etc
and you're already theorycrafting on pvp which isnt released yet lol, you look so dumb
