Life Stolen

Diablo II Notation Basic Class Skill Item Ally Quest Area Monster Tale Attribute Unit Animation Attack Damage Death All Attributes Strength Dexterity Vitality Energy Stamina Stamina Drain Heal Stamina Life Maximum Life Life (on Level) Replenish Life Open Wounds Life Stolen Life After Kill Stamina damage Mana Maximum Mana Mana (on Level) Regen Mana Dmg to Mana Mana Stolen Mana After Kill Mana damage % Life Stolen per hit returns life to the user based on a percentage of final physical attack damage applied: if a target takes no physical attack damage, no life is returned. Casting Amplify Damage or Decrepify will reduce Damage Resist and consequently increase final physical attack damage and thus life returned. Percentages from multiple sources are summed, although when two weapons are equipped only that of the attacking weapon is added (that of the other weapon is ignored). Not applied by Blade Sentinel or Smite. Does not work with skills which convert 100% physical attack damage to another type, for obvious reasons: Fire Arrow Level >49 Cold Arrow Level >49 Lightning Bolt Fists of Fire Level >33 Berserk Does not apply to damage returned by the following: Thorns Iron Maiden Iron Golem Spirit of Barbs Attacker Takes Damage. For players and hirelings, life returned is reduced to 1/2 in Nightmare and 1/3 in Hell. Unit drain effectiveness also reduces life returned: no life is returned when attacking monsters with 0% drain effectiveness, regardless of final physical attack damage applied. When attacking a monster with 50% drain effectiveness in Hell, only life equivalent to ~1/6 (1/3 * 1/2) percentage of final physical attack damage is returned (reductions apply to life returned, not the percentage itself). Life Tap is not affected by difficulty level penalties or drain effectiveness: it always returns life equivalent to 50% of final physical attack damage, even when using Smite.
