Eternal life - issue

If my health gets low under my energy shield, there is no way for me to regenerate, even while in my hideout.

What I do is refund the ascension passive point, use life flask, then apply the passive again.

Is there a better way?

I believe the plan is to not get back to full health with it?
So you can get "more damage while on low life"

I'm not sure but i think that's one of the main reason to pick that node.
So nobody want the life to replenish.

I believe there are no other way to do so than respec, or removing all your ES gear to have zero ES.

You have to strip before you drink from the well, you foolish undead!

Maybe for Blood mage but for Lich it has no indication of that,
I'm pretty sure it negates bleed under my energy shield.

It says "Life cannot change while you have Energy Shield"

So the only way to heal back to 100% life is to drink flask when my ES is gone, or if I refund the passive.

yeah lol I can just take all my ES items off too, oh well not a big deal

**ahh because the first passives give +10 base ES that doesn't work

It doesnt work for skills that use life instead of mana.

You get your life in "low" state, and grab all the nodes/items that make you deal more damage on low life. There is a belt that make low life start at 75% instead of 35%.

Dont expect much indication from the game =)

If your goal is to avoid bleed you better take chaos innoculation and take something else from your ascendancy i think.

But i only play monk, just what i read from the witch enthousiasts =)

oh yeah true, I might try that but the damage is already really good.

I will try CI soon like you mentioned and see if it's good vs the abyss green ice green flamethrower abomination.

This has me imagining Witch bathing naked in a well in the middle of town, thanks XD

who are we kidding, she'd 100% do that


But yeah it was my understanding that the Eternal Life node is generally used to utilize all the "low life" effects you can get.

You'll be immune to chaos damage but not the cold.

If taking CI, dont forget you absolutely need to take the nodes that give Stun and elemental ailment threshold based on percent of ES instead of life, or you will be frozen/on fire/stunned with every single small hit =)

There is 5 nodes near CI, i never used CI but i always take thoose on my monks. I forgot the name but they're right in front of CI node.
