Vaal Pact is a keystone passive skill that grants instant life restoration from life leech. It also causes life regeneration to have no effect.
Comparison to standard behavior
Without Vaal Pact, life leech occurs at maximum leech rate, by default 20% of maximum life per second which can be increased by passives, instead of instantly. Vaal Pact has no effect on mana leech.
Timing
Leech is processed before reflect damage.[1] Therefore the order of operations is:
Hit enemy -> Leech (Instantly) -> Reflect 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.
Location
Vaal Pact is located on the right side of the tree, between Ranger and Shadow.
