I concur with this. Life Strike is good, but even maxed with Rage there are situations where I'm killed because I'm taking more damage than I can heal (for example against pesky Corpus Techs). Having only a 5% Life Steal would be suicide in that case.

The energy consumption may be larger, but you get more mileage out of a single strike restoring much larger amounts of health than saving up on energy through smaller but less effective lifesteals.
