Mourns the loss of his bucket with wings.

[Hakthaf]

<DIV>It is a sad day for my templar as I wake up to find my bucket with wings gone, I searched and searched and only found a purple version of my hooloh acorn helm. *cries* Why did they take my bucket with wings, it kept me safe, and warm, also helped me carry around water when I needed to. So I hope many join me in mourning the bucket with wings that is gone now *"Plate Helm of the Ether" for those confused*</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Seriously, why did they feel the need to change this helm graphic, I absolutely hate the Hooloh customized helm graphic *mainly becuase its a brown acorn hollowed out* but now plate helm of the ether is changed to that graphic only is purple and gold.</DIV>

<div></div>I noticed the icon had changed, but I don't usually show helms to have seen that the actual playable graphic changed too.  <span>:smileyindifferent:</span>I understand the art and mechanic departments are different, but they still have not fixed the proc on this helmet to heal the target... instead of the target healing you.<div></div>

<DIV>I miss the old helm graphic, but the new one does match with my Black Lotus Breastplate and my Firebrand gear a little better. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Grump</DIV> <DIV>70 Templar Butcherblock </DIV>

<DIV>The helm procs fine here.  What's nice is that if I cast any type of group heal, it also has a chance to proc on any of the group members.  It's kind of funny when I cast a group reactive and if I'm lucky, everyone raise their hands to show that the proc is on them.</DIV>

[Hakthaf]

<DIV>I dont know what to so, I know for a fact the helm has been proc'ing fine for me for a long time, I watch the green numbers appear over targets head, see it in log, and show up on parse. Never noticed a problem with the proc on my end.</DIV>

[Moonsoldier]

My helmet procs just fine. I've seen the proc animations go off even. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />And I'm happy with the purple acorn... my Firebrand Helmet still is wing'ed though <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />And .. my Hoo'Loh hat is still Hoo'Loh Mark I... ><img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />/dances I have all the hats!!!

<div></div>Heh, I don't understand...  I took that screenshot last night, so I <i>know </i>it's broken for me at the least.  My only heal proc item that works correctly is my GK scepter.  My helm and earring have been broken since late December after a LU I believe, and was still broken last night.  The linked thread above showed I wasn't the <i>only</i> one with the problem.  And yet seemingly the bug isn't happening to everyone?My test was extremely simple... I just summoned a pet, cast single heals on it until I saw the regen icon in <i>my</i> effects bar, used a manastone to hurt me and took a screenshot of the healing message.  I can't dispute you all saying it works fine, but I can't see how you can dispute a screenshot of a fluff pet healing me with the proc effect either.Usually I would think that it would be working for 100% of the people or not.  Or at least intermittently for everyone, but I hope you can understand my boast when I say I parse all the time, and it's been broken <u>for me</u> all this time.<div></div>

[Kinza]

Try casting on someone that's actually injured.....because it won't regen on them if they aren't hurt.  It works cause I see it healing on them when it procs.

[Hakthaf]

<DIV>I actually remember seeing the exact line of text during groups of "Your mending touch heals *person* for xamount" (Least is was something very close to that if not that), sorry havent been online in a little bit due to work and classes. I dont doubt this can be broken for some and work for others, ive heard it happen in the past.</DIV>

<div></div><div><blockquote><hr>Kinzama wrote:Try casting on someone that's actually injured.....because it won't regen on them if they aren't hurt.  It works cause I see it healing on them when it procs.<hr></blockquote>That's not quite correct.  It does not matter if you heal for anything or not, the regen's icon will still be placed on the recipient.  It looks like this:<img src="http://home.maine.rr.com/eqaditu/MendingTouch-Icon.png"> If you are unsure.  Casting on others, the icon is always placed on me, which heals me... not the original target of the heal.  Before LU29 or 30, I forget... it worked as it should and placed the regen on the target of my heal.Take this log for example:<blockquote><hr size="2" width="100%"><font size="1">(1170381266)[Thu Feb 01 20:54:26 2007] You pray devoutly for Dire Intercession.(1170381266)[Thu Feb 01 20:54:26 2007] <b>Ahdam's helm glows with divine energy!</b>(1170381266)[Thu Feb 01 20:54:26 2007] <b>Ahdam's Mending Touch heals YOU for 150 hit points.</b>(1170381266)[Thu Feb 01 20:54:26 2007] Aditu touches you with divine energy!(1170381266)[Thu Feb 01 20:54:26 2007] Ahdam's group is augmented by Dire Intercession.</font><hr size="2" width="100%"></blockquote>I cast a group reactive on the group, my helmet procs... but my target becomes the caster of the helmet, and that person starts healing <b>me</b>.  Ahdam is a berserker if you cared, and certainly cannot equip the helmet.Another point of interest is the last time I actually used the helmet on a raid.  Here is a <a target="_blank" href="http://home.maine.rr.com/eqaditu/MendingTouch-Inc.png">screenshot</a> of a parse where nearly my entire group casts my own helmet proc on <b>me</b>.  My Outgoing Heals of Mending Touch for that parse only holds two heals, where <i>I</i> am both the target and caster.But I know this is going to be another thread where I provide as much evidence as I can, and others just provide "works for me" and expects me to accept it.</div><div></div>

[Momolicio]

Well this is a sideswiped thread now;BUT,I agree it is broken and funky. Healing bonuses are not carried over to the effect, they are carried to the delve. Etc.I was the sole Templar on Lyceium in MT group and my helm proc'd 1 time, on me.... thats not right.<div></div>

[Wastura]

Templar "Firebrand Helm" still has the bucket graphic.

[Zakarth]

<DIV>Do you think the plate helm of the ether that is referenced in this post is worth it for someone who already has a mystical orb of the healer?  I decided  to get a barbute of the flapping wing because of the FT2, but now you guys are making me wonder if I shoulda bought the other one instead.  If I recall though, it was like 8 plat more.</DIV>

[da5idblacksun]

So I just got the hooloh hat and it looks like a normal helm except the texture.  Does anyone have a screenshot of what "customized" hat looks like if I do the exchange.  And if I exchange can I change back? How can we decide without being able to see what it looks like? Please help.

[da5idblacksun]

Ok I took the exchange and that hat is better than the first one but still not that cool.  Oh well, the stats are good.

[da5idblacksun]

The bucket with wings is better - more distinctive.
