+Heal Cap Bug

Bad · 11-30-2006, 09:49 PM

At the moment, +heals are getting capped before pulse normalization. For example, the regen ticks on sylvan streams stop improving after 92 worn +heals (which gives 88-107).

When 250 +heals is relatively easy to reach, this bugged cap is rather painful for wardens that are wanting to focus on +heal gear.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean. I took what you said to mean that we only benefit from +heal gear up to 92. Is this correct?

+92 is easy to hit. One Tunare cloak, one +40 adornment and the ivy orb of tunare and bam you're at +90.

Which quest line does the Orb come from? (yeah, yeah its off topic)

mikemcmodmi · 12-01-2006, 02:22 AM

It's from the quest called corruption in the faydark. Starts off the high priestess in lesser faydark behind the big tree.

I noticed the same thing, I was playing around with them as I've gotten a few items and I noticed the same thing.

Sorry if I wasn't clear.

+Heals are supposed to be capped at twice the original heal value. For example, sylvan streams should be capped at 150-184 regen (with something like 550 +heals).

Instead of capping the normalized value, +heals is being capped before normalization. The regen on sylvan streams stops improving at 92 +heals (at 88-107).

And yes, this is extremely easy to hit. Without too much difficulty, you can get 200 from adornments alone (gloves, weapon, neck, waist, and one wrist).

Ah OK, I understand what you mean. Yes this should be fixed. With being capped FT and having power up the wazoo as it is, the only real way to become a better healer is through +heal bonuses. With it capping out so low it's a problem.
