Gem not functioning // Blood stone

Wicked Bug Reporting
1

Hi guys,
The Blood Stone gem appears to be functioning incorrectly. The lifesteal effect does not match the value stated in the gem description.

The gem states 10% Lifesteal, so dealing 200 damage should restore approximately 20 HP per hit.

When dealing around 200 damage, the character only restores about 2ā€“3 HP, which is significantly lower than expected.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Equip a weapon with the Blood Stone gem.

  2. Attack enemies dealing approximately 200 damage per hit.

  3. Observe the amount of HP restored after each hit.

Healing received is roughly 2ā€“3 HP instead of the expected ~20 HP.

  • Issue occurs consistently across multiple enemies.

  • Tested without other lifesteal modifiers active.

  • Damage numbers appear correct; only lifesteal calculation seems incorrect.

Possible Issue:
Lifesteal may be calculated from base damage instead of total damage, or the percentage scaling may be applied incorrectly.

Lifesteal, as displayed in the UI, has unfortunately been a lie for a while.

Long ago, I think in The Breach, lifesteal received an internal multiplier of 20%. From Hotfix 2 to 26873 lifesteal was 30% of the indicated percentage (if the game claimed 10%, it was 3%).

From Patch 1, or 28175, lifesteal is reduced further, to what is now 15% of the indicated percentage (for 10%, an effective 1.5%). Thank you to sBAM for the help!

The patch notes are vague on this, unfortunately:

The hidden coefficient should be set to 0.15 after patch 1 I think.
