My friend said that...
Dunno why, thats the reason why im asking. I cant find any notes about Leech an PvP so im sure thats working, too.


of course it works in pvp, its just not a good idea to base your build on leech in pvp because of items and passives that negate it

There would be no point in passives or items that don't allow enemies to leech off you if leech didn't work in PvP. It certainly wouldn't be necessary to have such a mod against monsters. So, yes, you can leech in PvP. Yes you can leech in the Grandmaster map. No, you can' torch against the grandmasters that have the "enemies can't leech from you" mod, which is probably a fair amount of them.

no one in this thread said it doesnt work

but if you really need confirmation just use a normal character that you have, which relies on life leech and challange a mate that doesnt have bloodless passive or some corrupted cannot leech helm

Hyron, the reason your stupid friend(s) think leech doesn't work is because lots of PvPers, including grandmasters, explicitly use "enemies cannot leech" items or Bloodless. Everyone here agrees that (a) leech works in PvP [fundamentally; it usually doesn't do anything because everyone taking it seriously either prevents leech or has absolute damage mitigation like block or dodge], and (b) your friends are stupid.
Okay will try the following later:

- specc into vaal pact => insta leech, no life reg
- remove life gain on hit from cyclone
- activate blood rage
- fight a friend
don't mean to sound rude and all, but why do you bother asking the question in the first place when you don't believe the 2 pages worth of people giving you the answer?!

remember to fight a friend that doesnt have bloodless node or a corrupted "enemies cannot leech" helm or sin treks

Dont worry a lot of people dont think leech works in PvP when in fact it does. Whats happening is that because of the damage scaling formula for PvP you arnt doing as much damage as you normally would in PvE content so you leech a lot less.

Also Players do a lot more damage than monsters so they drain your life at a much faster rate than you can counter with leech. That along with items and passives that counter leech dont make it a worth while investment for most builds.

couple years later here but the last time I tested life leech in pvp (lld) it didnt work.

Opponent did not have bloodless passive or any other anti leech capability

Me wearing carnage heart

He damages me and then stops

I damage him repeatedly and should leach with carnage heart (phys damage leech) and blood drinker passive. no life gain for me. no damage boost from carnage heart while damaging him

At least in this test life leech does not work in pvp
