Blood Rage doesn't apply leech correctly. Power Siphon doesn't grant enough charges.

I am playing a wandslinger Shadow here on another account, using Power Siphon, supported by Chain, Increased Critical Damage, Item Quantity and Item Rarity.

Using Inner Force passive and 5 aura's: Discipline, Grace, Hatred, Anger and Wrath, and a skillgem: Blood Rage.



I have 3% physical life leech from gear, and a 20% quality Blood Rage at level 10, which gives me 9% * 1.30 = 11.7% = 11% increased leech, meaning I have 14% total leech. All good so far.



Now after making 3 kills using Power Siphon, with Blood Rage active, the Blood Rage refreshes and suddenly I have only 9% total leech. All 3 kills were made by Power Siphon, yet I've only gained 2 Power Charges, and Blood Rage gave me 3 Frenzy Charges.



This doesn't seem to work as intended.

Would I be correct in assuming that at least 2 of your kills came from a chained Power Siphon? If this is the case then that is most likely why you only have 2 Power Charges instead of 3. As with Power Siphon and LMP even if you killed all 3 targets on one cast you can only gain a single Power Charge per cast was my understanding.

As for the Life Leech I think I saw somewhere, maybe in the skills forums, about the quality bonus on Blood Rage not working properly but I could be thinking of something else. Other then that I have no clue as to this issue and someone else, probably from GGG, will have to clarify it.

Correct. The only skill that can grant multiple Charges per cast is Enduring Cry.

Yep, that's it. Support Gem bonuses are also lost when Blood Rage refreshes, by the way.
