Is a negative Vampiric aura possible?

Just thought someone might be able to answer this question so i don't have to go and try it out.

Does reversing the data for vampiric aura (changing it to neg) make it so when a unit attacks they give life to the unit they are attacking or does it make it when a unit attacks they take damage themselves. Thx for any help that can be offered.

Then, the only value used by the vampiric aura (in abilitydata.slk) is the amount of damage made that is stolen stolen by the unit having this aura.

It means that when the unit makes some dmg (only working on melee units btw, unlike life leech/steal , a part of that dmg (multiplied by the value in the slk) is ADDED to the unit's hit points.

Now if you enter a negative value, it makes sense that the dmg multiplied by this value will result a negative number that will be added to the unit owning the aura.

Then the result of 'reversing' a vampiric aura will be reducind its owner hp everytime he does some melee damage.

Thxs, sorry bout posting in the wrong forum.

vamp aura, is basically a positive thorns aura. keeping the targets and making the amount a neg number, would just make the aura a thorns aura that hurts you. One way i could think of making it so they give life, is have a command aura that targets enemy units, then making it a neg number (-1 to neutralize the enemies attack)
