Enchantments

Life Steal from an enchantment is not exactly the same as vanilla lifesteal. Vanilla lifesteal calculates the amount of healing you will receive and truncates any decimal. Lifesteal from an enchantment stores the decimal and adds it to your heal amount the next time you use lifesteal. (Note: This remainder is reset to zero if you reach full health) This makes lifesteal from enchantments valuable on any weapon because you can heal some regardless of the damage per hit. Lifesteal from enchantments utilizes the same lifesteal limiting as vanilla does. This limit is very unlikely to be reached unless you are using a weapon at least as powerful as the Zenith. At that point, you may reach the limit. If you do exceed the limit, you will gain zero life from lifesteal util it has recovered. The amount the limit value is affected can be adjusted in the config. (Note: the config option does not affect any source of lifesteal besides lifesteal from enchantments.) Life steal gained from minions is reduced by half. (I may ban it or reduce it more on minions at some point in the future. Haven't decided yet.) Vanilla lifesteal allows you heal from lifesteal when already at full health (wasting the life steal pool for no reason). Enchantments do not do this. Additionally, life steal from enchantments will not over heal you past full health which would also waste the pool. The moon lord's Moon Leach debuff normally prevents all lifesteal. I personally don't like mechanics that completely turn off effects like this, so life steal from enchantments is reduced by 50% from this debuff instead.

The Life Steal Enchantment Basic can appear in the Witch's shop after the Eater of Worlds or Brain of Cthulhu have been defeated for 14 70.
