Guild Wars 2

I notice this in PvE today, healing prism seem to proc for every pulse of bandage in downed state, rather than 10s CD. Granted you can’t heal already downed person (me) but you can heal those who are still up. I wasn’t able to find the time to replicate this before I log off, anyone want to try it :P?

Yes I use this all the time in hotw when they struggle i simply go downed and bandage myself and be like a moving aoe heal skill

I asked myself when somone is gonna discover this, I noticed it about 1-2 days after release (july 23th patch) but first I tought it’s only underwater. Apparently not so it should be fixed please. Even tough, it’s funny to full heal anything in range while bandaging

that feel when their band-aid quick-fix didn’t fix a band-aid

did i miss something? ö.ö

It used procs for every hit when combined with vampiric aura or when you siphon health via other measures. So rather than fixing its effect with siphons, they add 10s ICD as a crude band-aid, but basically nerfed this trait to completely unnoticeable and unimpressive in any scenario. True we got 530 hp heals instead of 260 for each proc, but one proc for each heal every 10s is severely underwhelming.

Interestingly when I was down I vaguely recall healing for 270 every proc, so it is the pre-nerfed version when combined with bandage.

the funny part is, i think they “tried” to fix it for Vampiric Aura, i think, it was in the patch notes, it said something about the trigger rate, but it never actually fixed in-game, so THAT’S when they slapped the band-aid-cooldown onto it

530hp/10s is 53hp/s
let that sink in
it’s barely half of regeneration IF you can manage to tick it every 10s for a minor grandmaster trait

Since rangers are getting insane healing capabilities now can they just remove the ICD they added to it. It was really only op when synced with vampiric aura from necros, which required 2 classes…….

Don’t forget that engineers got their heal sharing trait revamped in this last patch. Changed to pretty much exactly what we want, too :P
