Level One-Derful
I've been Level One Twinking forever (as those of you who know me know) and I've stockpiled lots of different enchants and loved being able to swap between them. I haven't tested too many things lately but with all the party sync gear excitement I decided to run some tests. Ele force used to outproc and outdamage life-stealing by a significant amount in the wod/mop/cata days but after putting them on today I felt as though they were much more competitive than before.

I decided once I got enough Outlaw's Cutlasses I would test them side by side ten times each on the scaled target dummies, and this is what I saw. As the image states, these tests were done using Skada damage meter.

Using the same weapons and gear, changing only the enchants, I have surmised that life-stealing operates within 80% or so of Ele Force's damage while also healing from 50%-100% of a Sync Gear+AGM'd twink's life pool over a one minute fight. For those of you deciding whether or not to bother getting a set of life-steal weapons, I think it's a very good idea and a powerful option now that sync gear has given everyone a bit more HP to draw out fights with.

For transparency purposes, my gear during the tests was full sync Ilvl10 gear with 2 agms. (I didn't think to put the sync vers trinkets on for more damage, but whatever.)

Enchants are

Neck: Hidden Satyr
Cloak: Shadow Armor
Chest: +3 All Stats
Bracer: +1 All Stats
Gloves: +1 Haste
Legs: Light Armor Kit
Feet: Boar's Speed
Rings: +2 Haste

------------------------------

I think I will definitely be using life-stealing in PvP over Ele force now as in my stamina set (Same set but with epic ravager pants and sindorei warding cloak) I have 774 hp and if I can fully heal myself without consumables over the course of a minute, that would be impressive.

On a side note, if anyone has some recommendations for better enchants for Sync gear or ways to get shoulder/leg enchants on them, I am all ears. I stopped focusing on my level one twink around the start of Legion and am just now getting back into the swing of things.
 
Nice find Jonnes!
