Meridius was the one selling it. Here's a link to the item.

i was sure that was dropped befor the change ^^

life steal lpk/mpk etc never worked like they are supposed to since I'm playing and that's annoying

life/mana steal are very important stats in all games that have them and I don't understand why they display wrong numbers for so many years

isn't there a way to fix that and make them show the real values at a given time?

% Life Steal etc used to work based on the numbers... it was overpowered to the Game creators design, so he Nerfed it with a different formula... you can see the changes made over the 10+years this game has been around. Basically... % Life Steal based on the damage capacity isn't calculated based on the BASIC principle of the mathematics and mechanics of the game.

yea i know, but only because people told me

how am i supposed to know that starting as a new player when the game shows me stats that are incorrect if you calculate them as any normal human would

5% life steal, 600 dmg per hit average = 30 dmg per hit, x9 monsters = 270 etc..

at least in this case i 100% agree that these stats are OP the way we play the game now, but can't they show the correct numbers at least

I have, and many old players that actually quit playing because of that change found their items they bought at that time with +X% Life Steal got nerfed.

There is a formula that was/is currently functioning as the game creator designed it to do so... again, the designer has NOT made those changes apparent to NEW players, and so we (being the community that remains from theses changes) can only HOPE to give a new player(s) with questions to the changes in the game mechanics from the past.

I am one person that utterly thinks that "stating % Life Steal" should be relevant to the DAMAGE dealt, not a % chance based on the damage between 1-10 or more hit points delivered... note, my previous point is a random reflection of how % Life steal supposedly SHOULD work... if you want to find out more... then check all the update changes using CTRL+F and the wording % Life Steal on the Ladder Slasher information page:

Using the CTRL+F (% Life Steal wording)... it will reveal the changes made over the years and you can formulate your own game style around it.
