Guild Wars 2

Does Med Kit trigger inventions “cleansing synergy” (pbae condi clear) and “heal resonator” (pbae regen)?

I’m not sure where I could test that.

Bonus question: does it trigger “Bowl of Saffron-scented Poultry Soup”

I mostly WvW, and it’s hard to test these things running with the zerg. I seem to be clearing conditions, but I’m so involved in what I’m doing I really can’t be certain.

I believe bandage self, the tool belt heal triggers them.

Activating or stowing the kit triggers on-heal effects; using the kit’s five skills (or its tool belt skill) does not.

Going by the wiki, it does. I used to use rune of the centaur a long time ago to give swiftness.

Med kit used to trigger these “on heal” abilities, but ever since the changes I’ve noticed these are now being triggered by the F1 ability “Bandage Self.”

I can confirm. I went to the mists and fought the practice thief. The bandage self is what does it. I also tried runes of lyssa, and that seemed to work off of bandage self as well.

One good thing from this is that a static discharge build would benefit from moving the heal from 6 to the toolbelt. But with med kit nearly useless I’m not sure if that’s enough.

lol, just went back and tested lyssa, and i’m wrong. That works off of med kit. Really strange system here.

Yeah, it is screwy. I really liked how swapping to the kit used to trigger “on heal” traits. The June 23 update changed that. I don’t like it, but it is what it is.
