Cloaked in Savagery -> Savage hit -> no ES?
A savage hit is a hit that removes at least 15% of the target's maximum life. Damage to energy shield and mana are not counted toward the savage hit threshold.
why this works not with ES ? it should work ! :) My Builds & Hideouts: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2083383 Hideout Community Discord: https://discord.gg/B2xQkmf Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Dralanorr Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/guggelhupf Last bumped on Apr 23, 2017, 2:46:09 PM

Lets have some cookies for those old school that keep playing life builds. ES has enough "crap" that makes it OP. Life should have a few tricks of it's own.
And they better keep some real downsides to ES if there is hope for actual balance in this game... PSS: Our almighty TencentGGG overlords are very scrupulous regarding criticizing their abilities to take proper decisions and consider everything "needlessly harsh and condescending"...
Good to know "free speech" doesn't apply in any form or manner on the forums these days... |

Mechanically, it doesn't need to work. Makes the particular ascendency focused more on Life builds than defaulting to the meta standard of ES.
Thematically, ES/Mana shields don't actually make you get hit. At least not with enough force to be called a "Savage Hit" that would make someone get enraged. Hence why attacks on to ES have a much softer sound than against life, because the dude's not really getting hit just their shield. |

I don't mean to be a jackass, but it doesn't work because life is not es.
remember, es leech only works because you pick a keystone/item granting a keystone that makes your leech apply to es instead of life. remove that keystone and boom es is severely gutted. |

" It would be too powerful and to abusable with ES. Imagine a life build with ~500 ES and ES regen (ZO or Shavrone ring). Every hit would be a Savage Hit... OP. Even if it will work for CI only (which makes little sense), it will be too powerful cause ES can get decent HP pool with literaly no investments, and have superior clearspeed while having 100% leech from CoS.

Cloaked in Savagery is already almost borderline OP on life builds. If the Zerker could get even more life (or has access to something like Legacy Kaoms), he'd pretty much be broken.
