So ive started using these bad boys in WvW and it seems any effect that regenerates health heals death shroud health instead of actual health.

Another small annoying bug that makes any kind of life steal build less effective to play, anyone else noticed this?

I was under the assumption that Lifeforce is not ‘healable’ by normal means, under any conditions; That is, any healing you actually get while in Deathshroud is effectively 0. It just fluctuates dependent on whether or not you are gaining Lifeforce via traditional means.

I’m sure I’d have noticed that my Lifeforce went up a notch or two with all the incoming healing, but the only time it seem to increase while in Deathshroud is during Life Transfer or nearby deaths.

Edited in; It’s more than likely another ‘feature’, rather than an actual bug in Arenanet’s eyes though. Shrugs

Been awhile since I tested myself for my own vampire build, but I do not believe any healing occurred to my health while in DS. Which was one of the many reasons I did not think it was a good build since healing did not scale correctly and the necro life leech just healed for so little it was just not worth building my entire traits and armor for it.

Unless using the 4 skill or mobs or players are dying it should not be going up otherwise.

So you’re saying that these items are generating Life Force instead of actually healing you?
