Hale Negator life & ES recovery when taking savage hit doesn't always work

This happened today when Uber Elder slammed me from 95% life to 5% life (Savage hit = 15+% max life) which should proc the life & ES recovery. I did have seven spirit charges, and took big enough hit. Spirit charges stayed at 7/7. Exact helmet wording:

You lose all Spirit Charges when taking a Savage Hit
Recover (2-3)% of Life when you lose a Spirit Charge
Recover (2-3)% of Energy Shield when you lose a Spirit Charge
