Guild Wars 2

The Healing Rain combo field is too small. When you combo Healing Rain + Arcane Wave to get Area Healing, if you are too close to the edge of the Healing Rain area (but are still within it, and receive the Regen boon), you won’t get the combo.

The Healing Rain reticle consists of 5 concentric circles. If you are outside the 2nd largest circle (but still within the largest circle), the combo does not work. I don’t remember this being a problem until recently, but I may be wrong about that.

Are you running blasting staff? Maybe it’s not increasing the field size to match the increased radius.

No, I don’t have blasting staff traited. Try it yourself, you should see that the outside area of Healing Rain doesn’t proc the combo.

I don’t know if it was reduced even further but i couldn’t blast it near the edge before.

I can confirm this bug as well. There has been several times where I have been within the Healing Rain circle and used a blast finisher, but the combo did not go off. Before the most recent update this was not an issue.

To be fair I have thought that something like this has happened with every combo field available to staff elementalists. Half of the time it was just the system bugging out and not telling me it happened (e.g. no area might message but still applying might).
