OK i was running a few 2-2 solo runs on my sage sin ( with sage BP ), when i got to wurlord boss, i start off my attack with rib strike ( sage ) which hit for abt 3.3k dmg, n saw the bloodsuck was only 100. isnt that like only about 3% of 3.3k? I thought sage bp was 5% bloodsuck !!!
'' The health absorbing effect is increased 'BY' 3% ''

    "The health absorbing effect is increased by 3%" that means that sage BP absorb 3% instead of 2%....

    You pretty much answered your own question in your first post.

    You already noticed it actually heals 3% of the damage dealt, that's also what it's supposed to do.

    isnt "health recovery effect is increased BY 3%" implying exactly that? that its basic PLUS 3%?
    thats imo what it means...
    otherwise it should say "increased TO", that wouldnt be as confusing...


    update: just asked some ppl, they said its a translation mistake (it should actually be "increased TO").

    well, imo, increased by 3% would mean that the 2% would be increased by 3% so it would be 2.06% xd

    Or follow the format of most other level 11 buffs:

    Sage version always increases the health absorbing effect by 3%.

    Demon spark for BM still says it recovers mana, not health. And why doesn't my sage vortex only use 45 mp per tick?????

    Skill descriptions were written by first year english students in china.... or their equivalent....

    I say we change BP to 5% and bm spark to recovering mana.

    that way everyone wins.

    it's a 50% increase, no idea why'd you be complaining. 5% would be like a 250% increase which would be stupid op.

    lol the crazys coming out of the wood work. There are so many skills in this game that the descriptions are messed up on. I used to insist to people that sage bp was 5%, yeah once I actually got my sin up I learned better, but gee that was a long long time ago, in a nonpowerlvling world b:chuckle

    Wrong, it doesn't mean that. It is indeed a typo in game and OP is quite correct on that part.
