The warlock's Gift of the Ever-Living Ones (XGtE p. 57) eldritch invocation is described as follows:
Whenever you regain hit points while your familiar is within 100 feet of you, treat any dice rolled to determine the hit points you regain as having rolled their maximum value for you.
The description of the Vampiric Touch (PHB p. 285) spell states:
On a hit, the target takes 3d6 necrotic damage, and you regain hit points equal to half the amount of necrotic damage dealt.
How do these two interact? Do I roll for damage, and then gain 9 hit points?
Best Answer
The invocation doesn't change how vampiric touch works.
The description of the warlock's Gift of the Ever-Living Ones eldritch invocation says (XGtE, p. 57; emphasis mine):
Note that this only applies to dice whose purpose is to determine the HP you regain.
The vampiric touch spell description states, in part (PHB, p. 285; emphasis mine):
Here, the dice rolled simply determine the damage you do to the target; the resulting healing is simply derived from that value. Thus, Gift of the Ever-Living Ones doesn't interact with it.
Rules designer Jeremy Crawford supports this ruling in his answer to a similar question about the invocation's interaction with the enervation spell (XGtE, p. 155) - which similarly deals necrotic damage and heals half the damage dealt - in an unofficial February 2018 tweet:
The vampiric touch spell's "healing" works the same way: you make a damage roll, and then halve that amount and heal. As such, vampiric touch's "healing" would be unaffected by the warlock's Gift of the Ever-Living Ones eldritch invocation, as the actual roll being made is for damage, not healing - you just regain HP worth half of the amount of the damage dealt to the creature by vampiric touch.
