In a game I just played, I got Ravenous Hydra and it shows 12% life steal on board and after I got my Death's Dance. The number become 14%? Is it a bug or the life steal not stack at all?

Death Dance's passive is basically AD-Spellvamp

Because it's a passive that heals you for 15% on every AD Damage (not only on aa's) and not a flat Lifesteal % stat, it's not getting listed as Lifesteal in your stats.

Still, it stacks with Hydra.

deaths dance works more along the lines of gunblade. where it doesn't actually give you life steal or spell vamp instead it is a separate effect that heals you off damage done. it doesn't show in the extended stat page but you definitely still get your heals stacked. :)

Deaths dance is technically not lifesteal. Lifesteal only applies on auto attacks, deaths dance applies on physical damage (which includes auto attacks). Because of that technical difference it won't be listed under lifesteal, even though they (should) stack.

deaths dance is special. it's healing based off physical damage instead of lifesteal. if you AA it is basically lifesteal but it also can be used on spells so it's not coded as lifesteal. you do benefit from 5% bonus lifesteal on the aoe it just doesn't show up in the tooltip since DD is proccing the lifesteal rather than hydra.

Read the tooltip. Nowhere does it even say it gives lifesteal.
