Does anyone know the answer to this question?

Life steal is not necessarily an actual heal because its a proc and not a trigger. Though, life steal could be affected under healing received as healing received is not based on proc/trigger but on application of effect.

No it's not, the way it works is your life steal rating will give you a %life steal based on your damage done

If you have 20% life steal, you then have a 25% chance to heal 20% of the damage done, so more or less 5% of your damage becomes life steal, right now it's not worth using, even with extreme ratings

Thank you, very much appreciate your input.

Life steal ignores that zombie debuff that prevents healing so I'm 99% sure it's not.
