+melee damage on full health + BM?

I know this works for CI characters, cus they are always on full health... or dead.
But what if I have BM mara that with every hit drains some of his life, then regenerates it with life steal.
Will the +maleee dmg on full health support gem to graund slam skill gem work?

It only works when you are on full life as you already know, so it is not a good idea for a melee (non CI) character which is constantly taking damage.
It works, but since you are always reducing your health with blood magic, you will never get the bonus.

It is best used with non-BM builds. Especially ES builds.

To deal damage with the skill, you need to use it.
With blood magic, you need to pay life to use the skill.
Thus, when you're using the skill, you're not on full life.
The question I think is, whether the "is on full life" check is done before or after the skill drains your life. If it's done before, your first attack from a full life pool would do the increased damage.
Mark didn't spell it out word for word, but by his description the check occurs after the Life cost (makes sense the check is made when the attack connects, and that the cost is done before the hit/damage check).
