Guild Wars 2

Does sub party effect the order who get heal first ?.

i know healing goes
1. party
2. squad
3. pet minion w/e
4. npc

my question is for squad if you have say like 8 sub group an rev say at group 8 by himself

will it go in order of group 1 will get heal first before group 2? an so on. or is it completely random?

I think it might be closest but I could be wrong.

you would be able to tell by looking at the squad hp levels: the farthest sub groups would die first which isn’t the case, and shouldn’t be lol. at least I hope it isn’t…

It’s based on proximity, with players always beating out minions and npcs unless there are not enough players in the radius of the heal/buff to be hit.

Edit: Actual proximity ingame, not the arrangement of the squad menu.

Ah alright just wanted to make sure becuase last group that did testing for it did not have squad sub windows

It still prioritize party members though.

This is incidently also why mixed WvW party healing can become insanely strong, such as having a healbot ele in every party as opposed to dumping 5 eles in one “ranged” party where other players steal the nonstackable heals.

The question was about priority given that the source is in a subsquad of their own.
