Vitality absorption with SK/Vamp

Immune · 11-23-2012, 11:00 PM

I was just wondering, does vitality absorption, which causes damage to be drained as hp, have any effect on SK or vampirism? For instance, VA 5 with SK 5 = 1100 hp instead of 1000? Has anyone tested this before?

No, Vitality Absorption doesn't work with spells like vampirism and soulkeeper... at least not the last time I tested it.

^Can confirm. Vamp and SK work as some sort of "health lost" thing instead of "damage dealt," or something similar. Same reason it doesn't work as you may expect against retal.

Retal do works on soulkeeper. If retal is lvl 4 and SK lvl 5, it will give u just 75hp per second, instead of 100.

I'm not sure how you can call that working as expected...

Never said "working as expected" but it does, retail lvl 4 returns 75% of the damage, sk lvl 5 drains 100 hp. Do ur maths and u will see it works as it should.
