Notes

• Spirit Visage's passive will increase your self-healing (in this case spell vamp) by 25% multiplicatively. So if you had 20% spell vamp before, you will now have 25% spell vamp (not 45%) (20% × 1.25 = 25%).
• Abilities with natural spell vamp have their own spell vamp fully stacking with items, runes and masteries that provide spell vamp.
• Spell vamp applies to all types of damage: magical, physical and true.
  • There is a common misconception it only applies to magic damage. This is incorrect.
• Spell vamp applies to nearly everything that isn't classified as an auto-attack. This includes most abilities, but also includes activated item effects (e.g. Ironspike Whip).
  • On-hit damage modifiers (e.g. Siphoning Strike, aka "bonus" or "additional" damage), on-hit damage over time (e.g. Seastone Trident and Toxic Shot) and abilities that apply on-hit effects (e.g. Parrrley and Mystic Shot) are classified as auto-attacks, and will not apply spell vamp. Any physical damage dealt will trigger life steal, while any magic and true damage dealt trigger neither life steal nor spell vamp.
  • A list of champion abilities on-hit effects that trigger spell vamp can be found here.
• Area of effect (AoE) spells only apply a third of the listed spell vamp.
  • Fox-Fire's projectiles are classified as single-target, and will apply 100% of your spell vamp.
  • Abilities with both single-target and multi-target effects, such as Lay Waste, will apply spell vamp depending on which effect occurs. In that, full spell vamp against a single target; or a third against multiple targets.
  • Single target abilities that apply splash damage will apply full spell vamp to the original target, and a third to the splash damage. For example, Conflagration with Blaze.
• Damage over time abilities (DoT) apply full spell vamp (e.g. Brand's Blaze and Malzahar's Malefic Visions).
• Does not work with the reflected damage of Thornmail. It does, however, work with the reflected damage of Molten Shield and Defensive Ball Curl.
• Healing reduction effects such as Ignite and Morellonomicon reduce the health restored by spell vamp. See healing reduction for more information.
