Max HP Steal Per Hit

Maximum healing possible per attack, per target. Both HP Absorb AND Max HP Steal Per Hit are required:

Healing Calculation:

1. Calculate Potential: Damage × HP Absorb%
2. Apply Cap: min(Potential Healing, Max HP Steal Per Hit)
3. If Max HP Steal = 0: No healing occurs, even with HP Absorb

Practical Examples

Example 1: No Max HP Steal = No Healing

Stats: 10% HP Absorb, 0 Max HP Steal Per Hit

• Hit for 1,000 damage: Potential = 100 HP, Actual = 0 HP
• Result: No healing occurs despite having HP Absorb

Example 2: Cap Applied

Stats: 5% HP Absorb, 20 Max HP Steal Per Hit

• Hit for 1,000 damage: Potential = 50 HP, Actual = 20 HP
• Result: Healing limited by Max HP Steal Per Hit

Example 3: Cap Not Reached

Stats: 3% HP Absorb, 100 Max HP Steal Per Hit

• Hit for 1,000 damage: Potential = 30 HP, Actual = 30 HP
• Result: HP Absorb is the limiting factor

Example 4: AoE Scenario

Stats: 5% HP Absorb, 40 Max HP Steal Per Hit

• Hit 3 enemies for 800 damage each:
• Per enemy: Potential = 40 HP, Actual = 40 HP
• Total healing: 120 HP (40 × 3 targets)

• Primary Source: Accessories (Earrings) and their Chaos Upgrades
• Secondary Sources: Master Craft Shoes, Option Slots, Pet, a few progression systems
• Temporary Boosts: GM Buffs

Notes and Tips

• Works per target (AoE skills multiply healing potential)
• Higher values allow better scaling with high damage builds
• Balance with HP Absorb percentage for optimal sustain
