Alright I haven't played this game in 2 years, so everything is completely new to me again
My question is about life/mana leech, and whether the 'per hit' means spells as well as physical hits? So basically can I life/mana leech with spells?
Damn, that would rock lol. What's the best way to deal with mana problems then? Lots of warmth and regen.,tons of mana to begin with, or lots of pots? I guess this is getting a bit off topic but thanks.
+mana per kill works with spells. The Tir rune is a nice low source.
Edit: It's probably best not to put too much stat points into energy. Later on in the game, you'll have more than enough for most builds, even at base energy. The points are better off put into Vit.
Weapon users need sufficient life leech. For casters I would suggest the Insight runeword in an elite polearm for your merc --- it's cheap and ROCKS big time.
