Poe Damage Recouped As Life (2024)

FAQs

Does recoup stop at full life? ›

Recovery of energy shield, life, and mana through recoup is scaled by increases and reductions to energy shield, life, and mana recovery rate, respectively. Recovery does not go away at full life/mana/es but what would be recovered during the time at full is wasted.

When an player blocks a hit by an enemy, the player gains an amount of life/mana/energy shield equal to combined gain on block bonuses from all sources respectively. Unlike leech, life, mana, and energy shield gained this way are restored instantly.

Damage reduction can mitigate damage over time, though it can only be gained from armour against hits. Despite the generic name, it is unrelated to mechanics like resistances or modifiers to damage taken such as #% reduced Damage taken. It has a maximum of 90% and a minimum of 0%.

The chance to evade an attack is based on the defender's evasion rating, though the actual chance to be hit by an attack also depends on the attacker's accuracy. Because chance to hit cannot be lower than 5%, chance to evade cannot exceed 95%.

50% increased Maximum total Recovery per second from Life Leech increases the default 20% of maximum life that can be recovered per second from all instances combined to 30% of maximum life that can be recovered per second from all instances combined.

Usually something will specify if it only works on hits (but not always). Recoup does work for DoTs, so it's a very nice defensive layer for RF. Recoup doesn't recover from DoT, and thus does nothing for RF degen itself. It's still a nice defensive layer to have though.

Mind Over Matter (often referred to as MoM) is a keystone passive skill that allows the character's mana to absorb a portion of the damage dealt to life. It is an essential part of the Mana before Life defensive technique.

Instant leech is not affected by modifiers to (leech) recovery rate, since its rate is instant.

Therefore, so long as the player is not buffed by an Acceleration Shrine/Tailwind/Reverse-Chill with Winterweave/Slipstream/The Torrent's Reclamation/The Flow Untethered, players with this Ascendancy passive skill allocated will be completely unaffected by Chill, Freeze, or Temporal Chains.

Full Life is a condition that applies when the character's current life is at 100%.

How much damage do you take from blocked hits Poe? ›

By default, you take 0% of the damage from blocked hits. Glancing Blows makes you take 65% of that damage. The Implicit modifier on Basemetal Treads, Darksteel Treads or Brimstone Treads, and the explicit modifier on The Oppressor, makes you take 20% of the damage of blocked hits.

The Inquisitor is the best choice, particularly when you are using any elemental-based attack skills. That is because of Augury of Penitence — a notable ascendancy passive skill that makes nearby enemies take increased elemental damage.

The amount of any given damage type that can be converted in this way cannot exceed 100%. If the combined value of all converted to modifiers for a given damage type is greater than 100%, the values are scaled so that the total is 100%.

Curse limit. By default, one curse can be active at a time on a creature. While a curse is active, applying a different curse will expire the oldest curse. While multiple hexes can be stacked with increased curse limit, marks are still restricted to one target.

Players can restore life by using flasks, gaining life regeneration from passive skills and equipment, or leeching life from enemies, among other mechanics. Life is fully restored upon entering a town or hideout (except in Ruthless mode, which requires you to interact with certain NPCs).

Damage over time (often refered to as DoT) is a damage inflicted continuously over a period of time. Unlike the other three damage sources, damage over time does not hit.
