How does Spell Vamp work exactly. I realize it takes SV% * Magic Dmg = +HP.

Does it work as quickly as Life Steal (AD)?

I was playing Akali and as I was doing Magic Damage, and I wasn't healing immediately (like Life Steal), but after a few seconds, Green light swirled around me and boom like +500HP... Not sure if that was her skill proc'ing or Regular Spell Vamp (I had both trying to determine its usefulness).

Spell Vamp + Amumu's Tantrum? (2.7% +1%AP) True Damage or Magic Damage, and does Spell Vamp work in concurrence?
Spell Vamp + Sunfire Aegis?

If you're getting +500 then that's probably a healer on your team. The vamp is supposed to be as immediate as any lifesteal would be (try Morgana in a practice game, put a pool over a mass minion mob, you'll notice your health rising immediatly). Sunfire cape doesn't count as a spell because it is an item. Therefore that wouldn't work.

It works exactly the same as lifesteal except for those casters that never use physical attacks aside from last-hitting minions. It deals the stated percentage of magic damage dealt.

For however much magic damage you deal with an ability, the percentage is generally how much you are healed for.

Of course spell vamp isn't nearly as useful as lifesteal since you are hitting a hell of a lot more (as in quantity) with basic attacks assuming you have any attack speed. The more damage you deal, the higher percentage of life gained.
