Spiteful does AoE damage in the same range, on a faster recharge. If we're going to consider the AoE of these skills, Spiteful Spirit trashes Life Transfer.

Life Transfer is still garbage, and blood magic is still garbage.

because you dont have enough att. points ?

1 line is usually your main. as a blood necro you will probably have max blood +1/+1-3 helm, your elite will be blood and so on. of course you can use other lines as well but using all of them is a waste imo.

That is pretty much all it's good for. Outside of that there is not much else it can do, anyway - we're talking about Life Transfer.

I'm curious as to how removal works on this one. For the health regen to end, does LT have to be removed from all foes who are suffering from it, or just the initial target?

it has to be removed from each hexed foe before you lose all regen.

Thanks, I'm sure we were all quite aware of the limitations on skills in the lesser arenas. In any event, just because degen works well in low level areas, that does not make degen good. That only makes it a reasonable method of getting through the first twenty minutes of the game. Furthermore, as stated by -Lotus-, degen has a horrendously low DPS cap, and is therefore easily outclassed by pressing C+Space while wielding practically any weapon that you meet the requirements for.

In conclusion, degen is bad. Therefore, Life Transfer is still bad. Slightly less bad than before, perhaps, but still bad nonetheless.

gotta agree... in any situation i think id rather use a decent curses build... but the bloodline is on the up... generally its alot better than it was before... but still... its not nearly good enough to even consider using over a good curses build.
