The modifier #% of Life Leech applies to enemies as Chaos Damage takes 200% of the actual life gained from leech and deals it as chaos damage to enemy that was the target of the leeching. Therefore, by default no damage is dealt if the player is at full health while leeching. This damage is not affected by damage modifiers as it is considered as reflected damage.[1]
Using instantaneous life leech modifiers (such as BloodseekerBloodseeker Hellion's PawClaw Physical Damage: (162-172.8) to (255-272) Critical Strike Chance: 6.00% Attacks per Second: 1.68 Weapon Range: 1.1 metresRequires Level 62, 131 Dex, 95 Int1.6% of Physical Attack Damage Leeched as Life(200-220)% increased Physical Damage Adds 25 to 30 Physical Damage 5% increased Attack Speed 1.2% of Physical Attack Damage Leeched as Life 5% increased Movement Speed LifeLeech from Hits with this Weapon is instant"For the life of the flesh will always be in the blood." - Atalui, Vaal Priestess) causes chaos damage to be dealt instantly as well rather than over time. The damage dealt is based on the life gained before the character is at their maximum life total.
If Brutal Fervour is allocated, then the damage will continue as long as the leech lasts, even once at full life.[2] If combined with instantaneous life leech, then the total amount of potential leech is dealt instantly, including that above the player's maximum life.[3][4]
Scaling
The only cap relevant to The Retch is Maximum recovery per Life Leech. This establishes an upper bound on how much life recovery a single instance of leech can have - regardless of whether it is instant or not. The Retch causes damage equal to a percentage of the life leeched by each leech instance, so this cap also limits the amount of damage The Retch can do for each life leech instance. [5] Therefore, in order to increase the damage of the Retch, the player has to either increase the cap of Maximum recovery per Life Leech (while still reaching said cap), increase the players life pool, increase hit rate (more leech instances) and/or increase damage taken of the enemy (e.g. curses). Any type of increases to damage, e.g. increased chaos damage, have no effect on the scaling.

N/A
The Retch itself is not a league-specific item. However, the ingredients of the vendor recipe were tied to Talisman league. There are additional ways to acquire league-restricted items, see the article for the League-specific items for more details. Since version 3.14.0 the ingredients are also included in the core drop table.
