Q:

I got few doubts about retaliation, specially related to WvW:
1. If I have retaliation and an enemy player X hits me, if X dies, do I get loot bag? Does X player get tagged by my retaliation?
2. If I give retaliation to a friendly player Y and an enemy Z hits Y, if enemy Z dies, in case retaliation can tag, who would get the loot, me or player Y?

1. you get loot if you do enough dmg with the retaliation. Maybe one hit wont be enough.
2. Player Y would get the loot

At least in this case the answer is simple, you will not get credit.
ALL boons applied to friendly characters counts as “Their” boon, so nothing will ever scale or act as if it belonged to you. Retaliation will scale off of their power, and regen will scale of off their healing.

That’s incorrect. YOUR Healing Power definitely affects the Regeneration you apply to others. I’ve always assumed that Retaliation worked the same way (based on your Power).
