Life Gain on Hit is now scaled by the Damage Effectiveness of a skill.

What its mean ?

It means that if your LGOH gem restores 20 health on hit, but your damage effectiveness is only 80%, then you restore 16 health on hit instead.

It means LGOH is now worse for Cyclone, but better for Heavy Strike.

So if a skill says 70% dmg effectiveness, and u gain 10 life on hit, u really gain 7? Does this only reflect the dmg of the skill? So if I have lightning arrow and 4 other gems changing the dmg up and down and sideways and all over, lgoh still gains 70%?

Damage effectiveness is used to scale all supports and other damage bonuses affecting a skill. Supports don't affect damage effectiveness, but damage effectiveness affects supports and bonuses. How it works is that the game calculates your damage from all sources, and then takes the final result and multiplies it by the damage effectiveness. The damage effectiveness is a hard-coded stat of the skill itself. There is no way to change it in any way, since the whole point of damage effectiveness is to balance all the dmg bonuses that is applied to a skill.

I believe supports like LMP/GMP, fork, chain, etc, apply a 'damage effectiveness' multiplier as well. I expect they are covered by the change in LGoH mechanics.

Supports have "Reduced Damage" not damage effectiveness, and as such do not affect life on hit.

Not really related to the discussion, but important to note that it's "Less damage" instead of "Reduced damage" as that is the source of confusion for many new players or people that just don't care about learning the mechanics.

I assume this affects Life on Hit gear mods in addition to the LoH Gem? Can anyone confirm?

No it won't affect LoH gear.... Gear has no Damage Effectiveness man.
