Leech Enchantment

The Leech enchantment is a weapon enchantment that heals the wielder for a portion of the damage dealt when hitting an enemy. This creates a sustain mechanic for melee combat, allowing players to recover health while dealing damage.

The Leech enchantment provides life steal functionality, converting a percentage of damage dealt into healing for the attacker. The enchantment glows with a dark red color when active.

• Proc Chance: Based on weapon level and damage dealt
• Healing Formula: The healing amount is calculated as follows:
  • Maximum heal value: damage * (level + 2) / (level + 6)
  • Actual heal: Random value between 0 and max, capped by missing HP
  • Only heals if the attacker has missing HP
• Level Scaling:
  • Level 0: ~33% of damage (max)
  • Level 1: ~43% of damage (max)
  • Level 2: ~50% of damage (max)
  • Higher levels continue to improve the ratio
• Visual Effect: Shows healing amount as green numbers above the character
• Glow Color: Dark red (RGB: 0x660022)

• Most effective on fast-hitting weapons that deal consistent damage
• Provides sustain in prolonged fights, reducing reliance on healing potions
• Less effective when at full health (no healing occurs)
• Works well with high-damage weapons for larger healing bursts
• Can be the difference between life and death in difficult encounters

• Java Implementation: Leech.java
• The effect is applied in the proc() method
• Healing amount scales with weapon level using the formula: damage * (level + 2) / (level + 6)
• Only heals if attacker has missing HP (attacker.ht() - attacker.hp() > 0)
• Uses Random.IntRange() for variability in healing amount
