Vaal Pact is a keystone passive skill that grants instant life restoration from life leech. It also causes life regeneration to have no effect.
Mechanics
Comparison to standard behavior
With Vaal Pact, life leech instantly restores life or energy shield relative to the damage dealt to an enemy rather than over time. This also causes maximum life leech rate to become irrelevant. Vaal Pact has no effect on mana leech.
Timing
Leech is processed before receiving reflected damage.[1] Therefore the order of operations is:
- Hit a target -> Leech -> Receive reflected damage
Interaction with Zealot's Oath
The Zealot's Oath keystone causes life regeneration to restore energy shield instead of life. Because Vaal Pact causes life regeneration to have no effect, taking it along with Zealot's Oath will prevent the character from regenerating energy shield. It will not prevent energy shield from recharging as it normally does. Note that energy shield regeneration, from sources such as Shavronne's RevelationShavronne's Revelation
Moonstone RingRequires Level 30+(15-25) to maximum Energy Shield+(60-75) to Intelligence
Right ring slot: You cannot Regenerate Mana
Right ring slot: Regenerate 6% of Energy Shield per second
Right ring slot: +250 to maximum Mana
Left ring slot: You cannot Recharge or Regenerate Energy Shield
Left ring slot: Regenerate 40 Mana per Second
Left ring slot: +250 to maximum Energy Shield"Shavronne held Sanity in her right
hand and Revelation in her left.
Brutus chose the left hand."
- Kadavrus, Surgeon to the Umbra, will still work, as it is specifically energy shield regeneration and not life regeneration converted by Zealot's Oath.

Vaal Pact is located on the right side of the tree, between Ranger and Shadow.
