A question about boot enchants..

I am using flame totem build, and i got the 2 % life regen on my boots when i get hit..

Which is almost always.. +2% life regen..

I am wondering isn't this better than 10% elemental penetration vs boses?

10% elem pen ,when havent killed recently..


How much is exactly 10% elemental dmg pen? 10% more dps?
if u deal 100% fire dmg then 10% pene is 10% more dmg yeah :P
3.26 when?
Don't abandon us. don't turn your backs on the ones loving poe.
The more resistance the target has the better penetration is.
If they have 0% resist and you take it to -10% your damage went from 100% to 110%.
So that is a 10% increase in damage dealt.
But if they have 75% resist and you take it to 65% your damage went from 25% to 35%.
That is an increase of 40% in damage dealt.

To take it to an extreme, if a target had 99% resistance you'd only deal 1% of your damage.
But if you reduced their resistance to 89% you'd deal 11x more damage with the penetration than without.
When I kill a man he stays dead.
