Queen's Sword have limited Heal for each Map ??

[GR|M " 死神 " Reap3R]

As title said, I'm not sure if it's my imagination.
So I was using the Queen's Sword healing myself back up.
I did a few times, then at one part the Queen's Sword doesn't seem to heal as much as It did in the beginning, I wasn't fighting Undead.
It was like those berserk orcs is that what you call them ?? Medium size enemies, not big like Trolls like kind...

I might be wrong, but the healing doesn't scale. So while it's useful when you get it, it's effectiveness diminishes the farther you get into the game. Someone please confirm/infirm.

Goblins are weak. Fat orcs are tougher. Different enemies have different resistance to different sources of damage. The health steal is always effective and powerful though, especially if the enemy is one-shotted or if both parts of the combo connect (thrust first, slash at the end). Also, it just happens some times in rare occasions, for a weapon to not deal all the damage it should had done, if you catch the enemy fro some distance... Generally, try to be as close as possible, before unleashing a powerful move.

I think it might depend on who you're fighting. In island of karum for example, I used it on that one minotaur you fight and it healed me for about a 100.

Then I used it on the final boss of that same map (the vampire) and it healed over 1000.

It might also depend on how well the attack connects. And since it's called "vampire attack", I'm guessing the enemy's remaining health also affects how much you get. I mean, you can't take something they don't have, heh.

Edit: the goblins and orcs in Oasis of Nejeb have been fully healing me so far, whenever I'm missing like 400-500 health.

I see...I think it's as Alluboy said. Tks for the info.
I was thinking maybe the effect diminishes the more I use lol...if that's the case I'm going to keep it as emergency...

After using it a bit more (never really used the sword in the past, so I didn't even realize how useful the healing is!), I'm like 99% sure that enemy type definitely affects the healing amount. Minotaurs barely heal me. Even the one at the forge that has 12000 hp only heals me for about hundred. But goblins and orcs so far have been always healing me for like 400-1000.

Yeah I notice, those really huge enemy I think it's Minotaurs ( ones using like a meat cleaver )
Those doesn't give me HP at all ! But those smaller enemies, the really basic ones. give ton lol..

The Queen's Sword is a cool idea but in my exp you tend to get your arse kicked too much while trying to exec to combo.

[Navarro]

And Remember for people who doesnt know: Queen Sword only heals if you fight against living flesh, Skeletons, Undead, Demons, Dark Knights etc are ulsless to use on them, QS will only heal against humans, orcs, Ogres, minotaurs or renegade knights do not confuse with Dark Knights (they are similar but not the same... have different portrait and you can see his human face throught the helmet)
im with Alluboy, i imagine if combo has full conecction with enemy i will heal more, Combo is a long "draw" not always you will have a full impact.

Great orcs.

They have 60% resistance to the "Drain" attack type.
For comparison, regular orcs have 40%, traitor knights have 0%, minotaurs 90% and trolls 80%.
Additionally, the drain attacks will never heal more health than the opponent has left. So, even if you deal 1000 damage, but the great orc had only 100 health, you would heal 40 health.

Funnily enough, the Vampire is the only character in the vanilla game who has negative resistance to "Drain", allowing you to infinitely heal off of him.
