Is there a cap on Mana, Life, and Stamina Leech?


My ax has 40+ for each and was wondering if higher helps at all?

 Most anyone that I have talk with about this topic would say that you should aim for 45% to 50+% to really maintain a champion spawn.

  Ultimately, there is still RNG involved here, so 40% might be all you need...

Does vampiric embrace add life leech on top of 50% life leech already on my axe?

 @ DrMorrison

 If nothing has been changed-- from the original OSI/EA code, by staff-- then your answer is: yes.

 While under the effects of Vampiric Embrace, you will always gain 20% life return from all attacks preformed. [Note: 20% of 50 damage = 10hp]

 When using weaponry with the Life Leeching ability the formula is something like this: (Weapon Damage * Life Leech Intensity * 30% or [0.3])

  Example:     

   [Damage = 50]

   [Life Leeching % on weapon = 50]

   Vampiric Embrace: 50 damage * 20% (or 0.2)  = [10hp] returned.

   Life Leeching Weapon: 50 damage * 40% (or 0.4) * 30% (or 0.3) =  [6hp] returned.

   Total Life returned = [16hp] a swing---until something in the mechanics changes... like weapon damage increase/decrease or the removal of the Vampiric Embrace spell.


  I hope this helps you out DR. and everyone else wondering how things work in this field.
