Unless I am missing something,I don't see the big deal.

can someone explain the impact on say the scion side?

The way that I see it is, we just have to keep hitting and the leech effect will keep refreshing. There could be times when it is lost on bosses or between packs where there is a large distance but the first hit will enable the timer again.

does the 5% mean that a scion will only leech 5% of a hit for 5 seconds if you hit once.

Example:

Hit = 100dmg
Leech = 5hp for 5seconds (this could stack if you hit multiple enemies?)

Do i understand it right, that ascendant slayer overleech will only last 2.5 sec without any further modifiers?

e.g.:
1000 hp
2% of max hp/s = 20hp/s (this is given by game mechanics)
10% of max hp = 100hp/20hp/s = 5sec for pure slayer
5% of max hp = 50hp/20hp/s = 2.5 sec fore scion/slayer

or do i misunderstand the math?

Slayer is so fucking dead now. Gotta damage monsters constantly. On the othrer hand don't need to have ridiculuos damage anymore.

RIP Slayer Lab runner as a concept.

I am not sure if Slayer now gonna be good for boss killing at all given bosses often have phases that don't let you damage them.

That will affect even mapping. Say you stopped to roll the box, monsters, ice nova or anything can easily kill you now. Say you stopped to pick up some loot, yoink! have no leech! Say you stopped for a 0.0001 second yoink! Blood Rage already degeneed 90% of your life :3

Sorry, but I think you're overreacting. It was pretty clear that the overleech was a bit dumb that it was basically infinite. It is only in rare situations where you wont be hitting every 5 second anyways (lab being an exception as you point out). However, if it takes you that long to get through traps until you can smack another pack of mobs, or use a can of worms for another 5sec of overleech, I think you have bigger issues.

Slayer overleech still functions as a mitigation for oni-goroshi, so thats fine.

I am getting really tired of people crying wolf everytime there is a slight change for the better.
