It is considered an AoE because you can chain Mace of Spades on multiple targets, and also because having the full spell vamp applied for every hit doesn't make sense. We know that Mace of Spades does x/x/2x, so logically it should be 4%/4%/4% instead of 12%/12%/12% on every hit. If you add them up, it will be 12% of the total ability damage, 36% sounds really funky.
