Ok so I just learned that you need some weird source of BASE mana or life leech per this reddit post.

That would check out, however if you're using the Rune then that is "3% of physical damage" which gives you a base to go off. Not simply "20% increased amount of life leeched"

Yes, but the fact is its based on physical, im doing a hybrid phys/lightning monk. And even with a ring/jewel - (Soul Thief is straight up bugged), and all the mana leech nodes it still doesnt do anything. Sooo I do think its bugged.

100% not working, I leech zero life with my blood mage. It's not a leech resistance problem, it just doesn't work at all.

Bloodmage mage leech not working properly please fix

Not fixed yet I imagine? Kinda sucks not being able to play a bid part of your ascendancy as a Blood Mage.

i've got 18-ish % mana leech on my acolyte of chayula and i'm unable to leech. weirdly i do restore mana and ES via leech when some attacks land on me?

Blood Mage 10% life leech feels so worthless with a mechanic like leech resistance - I can't even sustain the skill cost on bosses? Wtf were GGG thinking, I really hope they'll address this - I'm ascendancy level 2 and feel weaker than a regular witch...

I see the leech restoring health quickly right after a spell, but it immediately falls off and is not restoring very much health at all.

It seems like even if multiple spells hit, it only leeches for about a second and then stops. Can you only get 1 leech at a time? And spells that hit during that leech don't even queue?

If that's the case, ascendancy seems DOA since higher mana+life cost and cast speeds will deplete your life faster than you could ever hope to leech it back.

I'm playing warrior with the 6% phys leech on my basic attack and ~70% bonus leech from passives. After removing most of my regen I can see trifling amounts of healing, maybe 6 health per hit.

This is on white mobs in act 3 who should have minimal leech resistance.

Thats the blood orbs dropping, not leech occuring, had the same during testing. Leech appears not to work at all.

Kinda funny that my planned crit hexblast build was triple tapped as per GGG standard, crit damage passived halved, blasphemy reservation doubled, leech removed :D
