The sorclock I'm building (see cheese elsewhere) will be picking up a level of cleric, probably Life Domain.
It looks like Vampiric Touch would interact with Disciple of Life to provide extra healing.
Is that correct, or am I missing something?

Yes, this should work. Disciple of Life says that
Whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell’s level.
Vampiric Touch is a spell of 1st level or higher, check. You are a creature, so if you use Vampiric Touch to restore your hit points, you should get the benefit.

1Woohoo! Double leech! – SorcererQzot Apr 26 '16 at 00:54

Not the leech. Only the restoration would get affected, not the damage dealt. – J. A. Streich Apr 26 '16 at 13:40

Probably worth clarifying the math here. You roll Vampiric Touch and deal 10 pts of damage. By default you would heal 5 points of damage, but instead you heal 10 (5+2+3) points of damage. If you cast this as a 4th level spell and dealt 10 pts, you would instead heal 11 pts because of the spell's level. – Gates VP Apr 27 '16 at 00:46

@Miniman Vampiric Touch has a duration?..Does that still counts as "when ever you use a spell of Lv1 +" that the effects of Disciple of Life still occur? – Jhyarelle Silver Mar 28 '17 at 07:29

2@JhayrelleSilver We have a question about using Disciple of Life with a spell that heals over the duration. You asked it, actually. – Miniman Mar 28 '17 at 08:02
