Bugged: Teachings of the Dead

pyrotechn · 07-11-2005, 06:42 AM

Despite a spell description that there is a 1% chance for the spell to do a sizeable heal on group memebers (or pets) when struck, the spell does not do any healing whatsover. I have all heals channeled to a particular window, and have verified over 10,000's of hits, that the spell did not activate once. It would be nice to have the spell fixed because in a tough fight, a pet healing itself (since its a proc, like clawing of the soul) increases aggro tremendously, helping it keep mobs on the pet and off us casters. Also, against any blue to orange ^^ or named, the spell is almost sure to activate once or twice, and those 600 point heals could be lifesavers...too bad we aren't getting them.

This buff keeps fading and I belive it poofs every time it procs the 1pct chance to heal, it is boring to keep recasting this all the time.Well, it is a fact this buff keeps fading on middle of fights, need to find what is it then and fix , I am sure this is not suppose to happen.

Btw could some one post the stats of this buff as ad3 or master I at lv 50?

thank you.

i've actually seen my pet heal himself for over 1k on 3 different occasions...i am assuming it was from the teachings proc since i was soloing. it is still not very useful...it should be a 15% proc and a 75-150 lifetap or something to compare with the conjuror group proc.

The only reason I'm replying is I don't want any developers reading this to get the false impression that their spell might actually be working. Literally, I went through harclave with tons of mobs beating on my pet, and all heals being channeled to oen of my windows. I only saw five types of heals: (1) my mend bones heal, 124 per tick when casted (2) my 259 sooth servant instant heal (3) a 73 point heal every 10 seconds from my pet buff; (4) a 27 point heal from corpseskin clawing of the soul proc, (5) a 33 point heal from words of the wicked clawing of the soul proc. Again, the window i have heals channeled to includes all heals, whether i heal the pet, or pet heals himself through some sort of proc, or a cleric or someone heals my pet that i may be grouped with. Not once in whiping every mob from that zone did the spell activate, and 10,000 hits i think is a farely good estimate (perhaps even low estimate) of how many hits the pet took. Also, i tested this perviously just to be certain in EL, again similar results.

Thus, I don't like to question others observations, so maybe the spell was once working, or maybe the healing is from a source other than what u think, but from my observations this component of the spell just is not working whatsoever.
