Leech is mandatory. No other form of regen can rival it.

Nor potions, nor plain regen, to both life and mana.

Can you come up with a build that can be competitive end game without having life leech? And yeah no life on hit too :)

summoner, dual totem, traps

No regen maps make it mandatory. No leech maps pls.

While we're at it, since there's blood magic maps that CI can't do let's add CI maps.

And then while we're at it let's also add No Projectiles as a map mod, Corrupting Blood as a map mod, Lightning Thorns as a map mod, Lethal as a map mod etc.

If Regen would be THAT bad, Rightious Fire wouldnt be playable. Since it does work, your point is invalid.

So cheesy builds that don't get hit can live without life leech. OKAY.

At the rate of one patch in two weeks, assuming GGG intends to keep PoE up for years, these mods are just a matter of time.

On OT: There are builds where leech just doesn't cut it. Dominating blow (w/o ST) on Eldritch is one i can think of. Some bow builds survive fine on BM/regen alone, since they don't get hit much.

Let it be known that I support the removal of blood magic as a mod because it's super rare and dumb as fuck.

thats why d3 removes life leech in the expansion (after you reach lvl70 LL has 0 effectiveness)

and i love this change as life leech is braindead mechanic

Life gain on hit says hi.
(Also, Aegis Aurora says "lol, leech? What is that?")
