Example:
-- IDEA --

Rework HP/SP leech mechanics like so: all proc chances are largely increased. Leech is now an actual leech over time effect, with a hard cap on how much HP/SP % per tick it can recover. The effect lingers for x seconds and you may stack it up multiple times (refreshing the duration) if you keep attacking and triggering it.

 

-- WHY -- 

Right now leech is rather binary, tending to be either overpowered where it shouldn't have much effect or very unreliable in its intended purpose. A rework could turn it into a mechanic that's both balanced and impactful while also allowing for additional interactions with certain gear and skill/status bonuses.

 

-- BENEFITS --

This solves the issue of recovering full HP/SP bars from a single AoE attack and being able to facetank bosses while at the same time improving the mechanic greatly for its intended purpose (grinding) as it now provides a reliable sustain and incentivizes attacking.

Auto-attack builds would benefit from the stacking mechanic to make up for their lack of upfront damage. It would also allow for the addition of new bonuses, such as gaining certain buffs when the leech starts/ends or while it lasts, autocasting skills or even sharing some of the leeched values with your allies. Opening the door for more interesting gear choices. Likewise, this new leech could be incorporated into certain skills and buff effects.
