Lets do healing per tick. I have no buffs other than Jboots and Demi Lich on. Here's some of the ticks I am getting:
866, 846, 846, 826, 806 - Appears to be -20 a tick. With Demi Lich at -32 a tick, and standing Iksar regen at +12, this conforms to what we'd expect.
Now I am in EC, and I am going to use the staff on a Bear. Like all lifetap dots, the recourse remains after the creature is dead, so the low level of the creature doesn't matter.
606. Casting Soul Well.
586
566 - Soul Well Lands
557 - Tick one, -9.
560 - Tick two, +3
575 - Tick three, +15
602 - Tick four, +27
641 - Tick five, +39
692 - Tick six, +51
755 - Tick seven, +63
830 - Tick eight, +75
917 - Tick nine, +87
1016 - Tick ten, +99.
-Expires-
996
976
Those are the values of my HP at each tick through a Soul Well. The first tick that included a heal was the 566 to 557 tick. Since it should have been 546 (-20), but it was just 557, that means it ticked only -9 (meaning the heal was +11).
The last tick before expiration was 917 to 1016, which is healing of 99 on top of the 20 hp lost, so 119 HP gained on the last tick.
These numbers appear to be consistent with the damage from Soul Well, so it doesn't appear the rumor is accurate. Soul Well is not healing for the final tick on each tick.
