How much of life leech is enough?


Supposedly I play elemental melee warrior with very high attack speed and BM in weapon.

What are my life leech options?

IIRC LL from gear *does not* work with ele damage.
From gem it does but I lose one precious socket in my 5L chest and i would like to avoid that
Carnage heart amu perhaps?

Is LoH viable with high attack speeds and splash damage? How fast you must hit to outperform LL? Will it be inferior vs single tough targets??


TIA

What's your physical damage?



A lot of gear has it for only Physical damage (another reason why physical > elemental >_>).

Many lewt.
Much desync.
Such rewarding.
Wow.
According to forum mods "sandwich" is considered an offensive word. Who knew?
Yeah, if you don't do physical damage, your only option is a Life Leech gem. I don't believe there's a mod on equipment that gives life leech on raw damage or elemental damage.

Is there a point to this? English is not my native tongue, so I apologize if I expressed myself clumsily.

"Supposedly" should meant that I don't play that char yet but I probably will.

No, it could gain life on hit. Not the same as leech.

But to answer your original question, "enough" life leech would be whatever % of your dps that is equal to 20% of your life.

Or 24% with a q20 gem.

Isn't there a cap on leech?
Crafting doesn't exist in POE. Gambling does...and the house always wins.
