Heal Decay and Siphon Life.

I'm toying around with a new project and was wondering about Siphon Life.

I got my recharge down to about 2.79 seconds, that's probably around 3.5 with DR and Heal Decay came into mind.

On my /Pain MM, If I would spam the PbAoE Heal, it would be lower and lower eventually healing me for just 75. However after about 5-6 seconds it would reset and the PbAoE Heal would heal for full in the zone.

Now my question is, would Siphon Life heal for less and less each time eventually having it's heal portion be useless, also affecting Reconstruction and Dull Pain or does Heal Decay not affect Siphon Life's healing portion?

I think siphon life is affected by heal decay because i remember playing my cold/dark defender in arena when you couldn't turn DR etc off in arena and that was my downfall. Life Drain would decay and i would die . So i'm assuming it's the same for the dark melee version too. Though not 100% sure.

Heal decay doesn't affect your regen heals at all.

Well, I tossed out the DM/Regen scrapper idea, oh well.

I'll just play my SS/WP Brute, and yea Barrier... I got Taunt now.

Siphon life does cause HD. Recon and DP aren't supposed to, but I think barrier is right that recon is broken.

Melee in-set heals aren't supposed to trigger HD... they didn't at first but I think that broke when they released I13 and they haven't fixed it.
