Why are life and mana leech treated equally btw?

My life pool is easily 15 to 20 times my mana pool as melee character and I not only need to replace the life I used for my skills but the damage I take as well. With a blood magic gem I'm roughly "paying" twice the mana cost.

It feels odd that life leech is not stronger than mana leech since mana is only used to cast skills. (Which can be reduced by several means like Elreon's rings btw.) Especially since hybrid flask suggest that the ratio should NOT be equal between life and mana.


Feels like life leech gets the short end of the stick here... ;D

20% Max Life per Second is incredibly powerful, and it can be increased notably... Maybe even moreso than Mana Leech? I never actually checked.

It used to be that Mana Leech occured at a rate of 12.5% Max Mana per Second; this was brought up to be the same as Life with the recent Leech changes. It's not that Life Leech is getting the short end, it's that Mana Leech now also gets the long end.
