what's the deal with RPG's leech?

[Ika 320]

RPG's leech was buffed, which is good, but I noticed a couple things - the leech echo shows up on the opponent's screen (i.e. when RPG hits you, you see how much he leeches), which let me discover the second point - it leeches more HP than it deals? An RPG shot me in the chest with an awp, did 110 damage, but leeched 180. Earlier someone on Wizard said that 56 damage to the wiz translated to over 200 HP leeched for the RPG. That's completely ridiculous, and doesn't seem like it's coded correctly. Might want to look into it.

Also, I managed to leech 380 health off of a single glock shot. While I was pleasantly surprised, it appeared to be a bit to much.

You should never be able to leach more than 75-100hp per kill (not shot)

I think someone modified RPG Race instead of RPG General.

Anyway, I asked Oracion to look into last night (Yiyas wasn't online), and he said he fixed it.

So who goofed? Oracion or Yiyas? lol

Isn't like that on my computer. Shouldn't really trust what you read either.

And even if Wizard is hurt for 1 damage after shield reduction the vampire will still leech whatever the AWP shot did originally.

It can leech up to 320 HP from a deagle shot (no headshot).

Is this rpg general or rpg race? Cause if the level goes wrong on rpg race it just gives negative vampire...

[BLiNDBoi 930]

RPG Race, I know for a fact RPG General's leech only caps to the maximum hp allowed, which I hate

[Yiyas 66]

Well you cant exactly "vampire" more blood than your body can handle, which is what I hate about RPG race.

Should be ok from next map on.

I did a reload of the mod and it fixed it instantly. I'm assuming something else happened after last night when I did that which broke again.

Cool. It can still leech above its starting HP, but it's much more manageable now. RPG got nerfed too hard way back in the day and now it's a good playable race.

[jamaaltisdale 0]

would allowing rpg general to leech more than starting hp be op?

[BLiNDBoi 930]

I think so, the highest leech I have got was 32, of course that was from a zombie trying to stab to me to death. Headshot spam...

Debatable imo.

[Ika 320]

RPG has really strong leech, but the cap at 125 makes it hard for him to really leech anything meaningful. If the cap were raised to 150 or 175 I think it would still be manageable. It's not an overtly powerful race anyway, since its skills are really not that great.

[BLiNDBoi 930]

For RPG General:

Maybe a expertise to allow leech to go over base hp that would be based on a percentage of the upper limit of hp.

For example, 125 * 1.2 = 150 and if a person buys the shopmenu item that grants 25 more hp to the upper limit that would be 150 * 1.2 = 180.

Even 125 * 1.4 = 175 and 150 * 1.4 = 210. Anyway I suggest this idea only because it would not allow the regen to go to those limits but still allow someone to leech it.
