Thread: Outgoing healing will now affect the healing from the Sign of Battle: Wizard's Fire.

Lore-master
Sign of Power: Vigilance will now affect the pet's ability to see through stealth.
Fixed an issue where the wrong icon was appearing for the debuff of Improved Sign of Power: Command
The trait Dúnadan-learning will no longer allow for the Loremaster to stack buffs meant to be handled by the Master of Beasts trait.
Sign of Battle: Wizard's Fire should now benefit from the legacy that enhances the damage done by the skill.
The Deed, Magic Adept, was moved to a level 60 only skill as part of the Rise of Isengard launch. This has been fixed. Burning Embers will now increase this deed starting at level 30 in addition to Sticky Gourd. All improved versions of these skills will advance the deed as well.
Display for the health gain portion of the legacy Morale - Sign of the Wild: Protection now displays correcty.
A typo in the description of agility for Lore-masters has been fixed.
A typo in the skill Knowledge of the Lore-master has been fixed.
Outgoing healing will now affect the healing from the Sign of Battle: Wizard's Fire.

From the new Bullroarer notes.

Another very welcome fix/tweak - with tactical mastery, Heals from flanks should be boosted by 30-40%.

Great. I get about 600 at level 66 so it will be around 900 after U5 I guess.

really good change, glad that one got through.

Now all I'd like to see is scaling of pet damage and I'd be a happy camper. The class is in a really good spot otherwise, and even then pet damage isn't such a huge thing, it's just annoying that most pets do the same numbers at 75 as they did at 65.

Really? That's all? I want to see our power drain scaled. Used to fill up my whole supply, and now it barely fills up half my power.

the other thing i was going to say was some hard content where something more than our DPS skills were relevant.... I honestly hadn't noticed the draw power issue becuase I've hardly ever used the skill in Isengard. Not only does the current content not require it, but captains have got a lot better at restoring power (especially if they use song brother) and most classes seem to be pretty good at managing their own power. healing rune-keepers for instance don't seem to ever run out of power.

But yeah, obviously if the skill hasn't scaled that's an issue, but are you sure the issue isn't just that your power pool has grown (relatively) larger due to our massively inflated power pools with the removal of the will cap? I'm not sitting at a huge amount of power (high 6000s) but I'm not particularly well geared, I imagine you'd get to some silly numbers by the time you were pushing 2000 will.

Sadly on Bullroarer, the recent update actually bugged Improved Sign of Battle: Wizard's Fire.

Its initial damage dropped to about 10% of what it originally was.

Its Healing from Flanks is still not affected by Outgoing Healing Modifier.

I guess Staff Sweep power return for targets affected by Improved Wind Lore (or the OD set) will have to remain on my wish list. But still, if they can get this working properly, it'll be nice. Props.

Im very pleased with this change. Ours flank heals went up but... there is still one more thing - Tactical Healing Rating on legendary book. It does not affect flank heals at all with it should, I believe.
Reported it as a bug.

Any comment from dev, please?

Pretty psyched about this as well... heals went from 700 to over 1000 (which is where my crit heal was at before!). I haven't been able to test it with the healing rating on the books as my DPS book doesn't have it leveled and my healing book has different relics that with the tactical mastery change would affect the heals as well. I'll see if I can verify that sometime this week.

The current implementation of flank heals does not utilize the Tactical Healing Rating. It is a straight level-based heal amount. Due to the conditional nature of the heal, getting the Tactical Healing Rating threaded through to the actual effect that is doing the healing requires a significant amount of coding. I don't think we'll have the time to get this fix done in the near future, but stranger things have happened.

I want to thank you and the rest of the Dev team for responding to this thread and several of the other threads. It is very clear that you're listening (even in some threads that are 20 pages deep!). These simple statements go a long way towards improving player morale, especially at at time where there are lots of other tempting games.

To the issue at hand, it would be a wonderful thing to get the fix done in the near future if at all possible. Thanks!

Can we please have the Healer trait affecting the heals from flanks also please?

Devs want to improve our offhealing ability, yet so many buffs to our healing don't affect our most important heal ..

Healer already affects flanking heals.
