Despite the tooltips saying otherwise, using the Guardian skill Purification while having the trait Healer’s Retribution does NOT grant retaliation like it is supposed to. Tested on myself and another Guardian, both in and out of combat, in the sPvP lobby. The trait seems to be working fine with the other heal skills.
Steps to reproduce:
-Log in as a guardian (dragon hunter)
-activate the trait “Healer’s Retribution” (first bottom trait under “Radiance”) and equip the healing skill “Purification”
-Mouse over “Purification,” notice that the tooltip says the skill grants retaliation
-Go into combat and use “Purification,” watch your boons and notice retaliation never shows up (neither when the skill is used, nor when the trap is triggered)
