Pretty simple question…Reaper’s Precision, a trait that gives you a chance to gain life force on critical hits. Does this work in Death Shroud?

Yes but because of how deathshroud drains. You won’t notice. It will just drain it slower.

I often take this trait. But not sure how much it contributes to building up LF. Anyone have observed carefully? In theory if you have on average 75% crit (easy on zerk with pack runes and death perception), you will get 1% life force on every third of these crits. This corresponds to 25% of ALL hits generating 200 Life force (if you have 6 points in soul reaping 20k life pool). But we all know theory can be different from practice.

It works and, in combination with Vital Persistance, can rather significantly increase your time in death shroud. Especially if you have Unyielding Blast and line up targets.

It’s not for every build, but sometimes, it’s very good.

Its only worth taking and builds that use warhorn as that is the only big multihitter where u can stack some LF, otherwise it is on the weaker side of trait.

Most zerkers prefer the weakness shroud
