with 4 bloodthirsters your lifesteal would be 100%. for every 1 point of damage you deal with your physical attacks you heal 1 hp. obviously with 4 bloodthirsters you probably have 2 items that increase your attack speed, probably 2 phantom dancers if you could fork over that ammount of money. but hey you're obviously fed super much if you had 4 bloodthirsters in the firstplace...

Lifesteal is % based. The amount of the life you "steal" is based on damage you did after the armor reduction.
So:
Your lifesteal is 100% (no diminishing returns work on lifesteal so you plainly stack it)
if you do 1000 damage per hit and your opponent has armor that reduces that damage by 50% you deal 500 damage
If you do 500 damage with 100% lifesteal you will replenish 500HP.
If you have 50% lifesteal and hit for 500 damage, you will replenish 250HP.
So:
Your lifesteal is 100% (no diminishing returns work on lifesteal so you plainly stack it)

If you do 500 damage with 100% lifesteal you will replenish 500HP.

I could only really see this being useful on a small number of characters that either have a naturally high AS, or a skill that increases AS, as otherwise you would likely be focused down. With 4 Bloodthirsters and 2 Phantom Dancers, your attack speed bonus is only +90%, which would be low on most chars, not great on chars like Yi and Tristanna (although with Tristanna's Q-skill this could possibly be overlooked). I see this MAYBE being viable on chars that don't really need AS in the first place (Pantheon comes to mind), but I cannot see this being viable on a regular basis, as you would really need an ArPen item for maximum effectiveness.

I agree completely. This sounds great on paper, but you're talking 12,800 gold worth of items that most champs will hit 2-3 times with before they're dismantled. I do like two BT's on longer games with some champs, but aiming for 4 BT's would deny you the items you need to boost attack speed enough to make the leech worthwhile.
