Hi, have a lvl 25 pure pally now and i notice when i cast Holy sword all works as posted it should except my merfolk rapier was not doing the 1hp vampiric regen thing. Not a big issue but thought you would like to know.

Vampiric regen. is notoriously buggy... seems to work when it feels it...

But smile! You have a +7 merfolk rapier

Vampiric regen is traditionally considered an evil weapon-attribute, so it sounds like everything is working fine...

lol working fine IF holysword was supposed to not make it work.

Once again its not a 100% RP server because when i get there ill be casting holysword im my chanters ( BIG FAT EVIL NEG DAMAGE) rapier as well.

unless some nice person would like to go all the way through and make good versions of every single wpn type

)

thanks for the replies guys.

I've noticed that vampiric regen does not work if you have any other item equipped that provides regeneration. The only time it kicks in is if you are at full health, then you receive message that you healed 0 (yes, zero). When not wearing a regen item, it seems to work properly. Maybe some hard coding that causes worn items to override the weapon (similar to massive crit)?

yeah.. vamp regen is odd for me too, i've tested the vamp regen weapons and the ranger spell and the actual regen only seems to happen ever so often, and not always on a regular interval - that's wearing no regen gear..

i did notice the 'healed 0 hp' messages on my lvl29 ranger.. i wonder if bioware is aware of these problems in time for the ?final? patch 1.69...

i thought vamp regen just took effect once per round? so if you land 4 hits 1 round, you only get vamp regen x1

That is right. It works once per round. Usually the first hit. And if your hp is full you will see the 0 points healed.

It seems it has a %/hit to fire off for bloodthirst anyway. On my ranger shredder 10att/rd it will fire off 1-3 times inconsistantly e.g. not on the first hit always. But i find if the weapon is imbued with vampregen as a permanent attribute it fires off much more.
