Can someone explain why blood magic is good?

Spending hp instead of mana seems silly to me.is it b/c you're stacking life gain on hit with it and you'd run out of mana otherwise?

It's basically because mid game you have life on hit and if you lvl that up high enough and using it in conjuction with AoE skills then you gain more life than you spend so if your armour and resistances are high enough you will always heal more than you are damaged

then late game you have life leech which is better than life on hit because if you do 1000-1500 dps and your life leech gem is 5% alone without bringing your life leech from your rings and amulet into the equation, you are gunna get 50-75hp per mob hit where as you will spend around 25-30hp to use the skill.

It's mostly because when you run out of mana it can kill you faster than having high health regen, it makes it back faster than you can spend it whereas mana regen can be really slow and cause you more deaths.

I would say that it is a convenience node. If you find yourself annoyed by constant mana flask usage by not having enough mana regeneration at some point, put a point into blood magic until you do.

You can negate the loss with a simple life gain on hit gem or by having life leech.


Other than that, blood magic is terrible. It can be a convenience while levelling but dumping a whole resource is just "NO".
