Guild Wars 2

When I use healing surge I get a full bar of adrenaline now. This actually makes the ability more useful than previously. It’s a solid trade off in my opinion and allows it to be more of a choice. Mending is typically the better choice. Please Anet tell me this is not a bug. At least let it stay and don’t “fix” it.

look closely at the skill description.they now say,it give full adrenaline so,no its not a bug,

it might look like a buff,well it is….but to get the max healing amount with that skill you need to be full adrenaline so,that mean you wont get any extra adrenaline.the full adrenaline is just a bonus if you dont use the max healing potential of this skill and use it when your adrenaline isnt full.

It’s a bit weird but yeah there’s no way they added it to the tooltip by accident. :P

I find it funny though that the skill both wants me to be at full adrenaline to work properly, and puts me at full adrenaline if I wasn’t. I tend to use it right as I lose about ~5k health so that I’ve got full adrenaline early on, and then by the time it’s recharged it’s full again anyhow so I get the total heal.

Really? My tooltip says Adrenaline: 10

Which is only 1 bar of adrenaline. Regardless I’m happy about the change.

They forgot to change the number, but it also says in there that it refills all your adrenaline.

the tool tip already updated, it now said full adrenaline instead.

But the adrenaline gain outside of combat drop extremely fast tho.

Loving the updated skill, with the precision signet I can spam my Longbow F1 in WvW against siege.

Don’t need precision Signet to actually spam it though :x

My favourite healing skill got better? Awesome

Just added that to the tooltip? I remember it being there the whole time since I first rolled my warrior at release.

It may not have worked properly until recently, but it has always been an intended feature.

I don’t like the change at all. It became my favorite heal after I dropped Healing Signet, but with this change I can use the adrenaline gain before the heal to my advantage because it’s not there anymore.

Being a Tank with a Hammer and Mace/Shield I never have full adrenaline long so I can use my Adrenaline Skill stuns. Now I might as well just use mending

This doesn’t effect that….the only difference after the buff is that instead of giving 1 bar of adren, it gives full…where is the problem?

I don’t think you quite grok this change.

I think he means that he can’t use this skill for it’s full healing potential because it heals based on adrenaline and he never has that full.

Then again, nothing was changed, so I’m a bit confused as well.

Yea its a strait buff. There’s literally no downside. If you used it at full adren, continue to use it at full adren for max heal.

Imo it doesnt change much though. Most adren skills are garbage. With the 10 point traits that give +x% damage and +x% crit chance based on adren, its usually better to stay at full adren anyways and not use burst skills at all. (for PvE that is)

@The People Confused with my post: Healing Surge used to give you 1 bar of Adrenaline before the heal (thus being able to use it at 2 bars and get the full 3 bar effect). Now, it heals you before the Adrenaline is gained. So I’m saying with the effectiveness of the lower heals by it, I might as well just use Mending and get the condition removal from it then use Healing Surge

People are just looking for stuff to complain about…
ANet: hey guys, here’s this healing skill, it heals you and refills you adrenaline, cool right?
Players: no it sucks, it’s so good that I hate it and it sucks…

People will just never be satisfied…

I love this on my heal shouts war. It allows me to pop it at the start of a fight and use Earthshaker and with the shouts and CC should hopefully mean you don’t need it till it’s recharged. I feel it’s balanced as if you aren’t using it at full Adren the heal is underwhelming.

They also increased the range of the horn to 1200.
