By the math, we know that Leech only applies to 50% of the damage you deal. Basically if you have 10% leech and deal 1000 damage, you dont Leech 100 life. You actually Leech only 50. You effectively only Leech 5% instead of the listed 10%.
Can we just half all the Leech numbers so that it actually displays the real number used in the math?

the Leech% stat is not the "this is how much i leech"
your leech% scales how much leech cap you have.
Whether you have leech 30%, leech 50%, or leech, 5%. You are always leeching 50% of the damage you deal.

No way. That cant be true. Or else you'd be leeching while at 0% leech
astral bramble
No. Because you need atleast 1 source of leech to enable it.

5% leech on gear = 100% chance to leech 50%*5%=2.5% of your dmg?
i actually wasnt aware of the 50% dmg aspect
why not just halve all leech stats on gear at that point and make it 100% dmg 🤔 or is there more to it

No. This is not true. I just tested it myself. Adding more leech increases the healing for sure (even when you are NOWHERE near the cap).
The character has 279 HP. The leech cap would be 62.78 at 5% leech and 69.75 at 10% leech.
This character's auto attacks deal 52 damage. By your explanation, this SHOULD heal me for 26 HP (since all leech does, according to you, is increase the cap). 26 is nowhere near EITHER cap listed. If what you're saying is true, then adding ANY amount of extra leech would simply do nothing for the character.
In this video, I show what happens when you have 5% leech. Then I equip another mosquito bug card to get another 5% leech (for a total of 10%).
As you can see, at 5% leech, each hit for 52 heals me for 6. While at 10% leech, I was healing for 7+5 (12). As you can see, I doubled my leech and literally doubled what I healed. So clearly how much leech you have matters, even when you're nowhere near the cap.

Yeah that's basically what I'm saying LOL
astral bramble
Literally how i explained it is exactly whats happening
You're at cap. and then raising your cap. Your leech isnt doubling by going from 5-10%
At 279 hp your leech cap with 5% leech is 22.5% or so 62.5 that is healed over time
You're drastically overestimating how hard it is to cap out the leech cap is.
But believe what you want .

I've discussed with the community and even the thing you posted above is inaccurate.
