Health Steal and Updated Bugs List

This might have been discussed before, but health steal doesn't seem to work. For most characters it doesn't matter, but Ventress has 45% health steal (instead of other potential stats from gears). I have not seen this acknowledged on the known bugs and issues list.

Also, the known bugs and issues list has not been updated for nearly a month. Thanks.

  • EA bug list has a bug that makes it unable to update.
    But seriously I've wondered the same thing.
    Somebody had posted it's tied to gear upgrades, you have it on a gear level till you upgrade the gear and then it's gone repeat cycle for each gear level.
  • As Oklahoma mentioned, once a piece of gear that happens to have health-steal on it gets "banked" via upgrade, it stops working (unless you slot another piece of gear that has it). If you have a health-steal gear equipped, it will work for basic attacks, assist-calling specials, and a few single-target specials, never AoE. Also, it doesn't give any floating text for the amount your character is being healed, but there's a light/aura animation when it heals, and it DOES move the health bar up.

    Not sure if it's working as intended or what (yet to see definitive confirmation from anyone in authority). Some could rationalize it functioning correctly by claiming that it's intended to supplement characters at certain gear levels (like a temporary band-aid) to keep them balanced.
