Consume Damage seems random to me

Sometimes it does very little and then I get one like this.

That's because its like a battery my friend.. when its used.. the pets enters into a state where it collects a % of the damage its negating... during that time itsgetting ready.. so the more damage it collects and is hit with during that burst the more it stores.. after the collect cycle is over it uses what its collected.. giving it a huge amount of hit chance and HP reg based on the % of damage it softened.... so if it not being hit much during the collection phase the effect is much less.it will still do a small amount even if no damage is collected.. that what you were seeing there.. . =^-^=

You know I don't like to skill. I was bored to death so I was checking the lore constantly and the regens didn't bounce around. Whether the pet was getting hit or not hit he said at 64 and then when I did a new one he stayed at 11. When it was 64 he didn't lose any life.

Consume damage also only works with physical damage.
It is useless against an Unbound EV, for example.

I have also noticed that you need to reapply the consume damage after you complete a pet advancement (after you click the blue dot).

I have been watching the other side of Consume Damage as well, the mana usage. At times I actually regen mana (granted slowly.. like 1 point of mana per drain) and then at other times I am losing Mana like heck even though I have the exact same suit and exact same MR on.... does it use mana based on how hard the critter is hitting it or something?
