Blood Ritual

Witch skill · Blood line · tier 5 (ultimate)

Beta 0.7.2

Tentacles grab the horde under a dark sky, and the party drinks life with every hit.

It is only used in combat once it is placed on the hero's active bar, and its 16 s cooldown is before cooldown reduction.

Values by rank

Blood Ritual scales with Lifesteal. Its value at each rank is 191.2 + 54.8 × rank:

Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10

Lifesteal is a percentage stat, so the value is used as written (in basis points, shown here as a percentage), times the skill power.

Lifesteal = value × skill power
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Blood skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it
