That's 3 added damage to all of your attacks, it's not about the health gain.

The health gain should really be there to balance out the health you lose. Vampiric stuff can be extremely useful. A 5:1 mod is good on just about anything due to it not only giving you more health per hit, but also adding 5 damage to your attacks that aren't counted as damage.

wow 3 extra damage! so i attack 10 time i made 30 extra damage.. that just not even one 5 energy power attack that i do.

the only time i would use it is with a cyclone axe... as a tanker in a warrior wall supported by monks.

and p.s. i do vigour spirit and live vigoursly (10 healing) = 20 health per attack x 15 = 300 health agaist 15 attackers when i switch to axe

You can always have 2 weopons, i swap my weopon before using cyclone then swap it back, works if you time it right.

i would much prefere having zelous hilt and gain 15 per attack then the extra 45 health while i am getting 300 anyway.

300 health + 15 energy per cyclone attack

or

345 health per cyclone attack

hundred blades hits everything TWICE, so infact it would be (15x3)2=90

hundren blades is crap it does crap damage and take longer to recharge then cyclone axe.

also read what hundren blades does:

Hundrenblades

Swing twice at target foe and foes adjacent to your target.

so if you have 15 attacker surrounding you, your target that you use hundredbaldes on aint going to be adjacent to all 15!

now cyclone axe hit all foes adjacent to YOU!

plz learn more before you comment

3 2 2
2 1 2
2 2 2

you are "1" your hundrenblades target is "3" the other enemies are "2", enemies that are hit are in BOLD, as you see hundren blades wont hit all your enemies

cycle axe will hit all the targets surrounding you "1"

3 2 2
2 1 2
2 2 2

target is 3 and all other foes get hit also (in bold)

Well, usually the point of warriors is to do damage, so what other prefix are you going to use? I don't care about the health gain, I just want to do as much damage as possible.

You seem to forget the basis of adding 5 dmg to every attack. Think 20-27dmg sword or 10-33dmg axe. Add those to your current attacks, you're not only healing yourself without the aid of spells, but also doing more dps without the aid of spells as well.

point of a warrior to do damage only

try an ele.. they will own your damage

warriors tank and do damage. (better tanks then damage dealers)

also as i said... wow 3 more damage.. and against multiple enimies (15) I would much prefere 15 energy per attack (zelous) then 45 extra health(vamp 3/1)from a cycle axe, when i would be getting 300 health from enchantments (live vigoursly and vigorous spirit), and you will need enchantment against 15 monsters on you (unless you farm spods )

I can't see your point in here, you just said that you found vamp for a sword bad. Well, in my experience vamp makes you have a 9-31 axe, instead of 6-28, which is really good, and, if you're not a monk as secondary, you may not need it at all. If you take ranger as secondary, you do tiger's fury, and the vamp upgrade actually heals for more than the health degen gives you. Of course zealous is a great mod too, but only if you're a mana dependant build, such as the w/mo. I'd say that if you want to do damage, get a nice vamp mod, if you want to tank, get a zealous mod. In pvp, you'll never want to tank, since you'll be targeted last anyways, so there is vamp a lot more useful.

I've got a 3:1 axe, and it does keep my health topped up provided there's enough enemies around, the more the merrier. When the enemies start dropping, so there's only one or two left, things get iffy, as cyclone axe doesn't help much anymore. Latecomer griffons can get real annoying.
So I nearly always use my 1:1 Zealous sword instead for farming. It doesn't do much damage, and doesn't give any health, but the Balt aura, wrath, zealots & healing breeze it powers does oh so much more...

So for me: zealous ftw!
