Does Honor Even Work?

pwestolemyname

So, the Arbiter spec Honor, I have been testing it, and it does not seem to work. Can anyone confirm this? I am testing it with Conviction with Reverence. Have not tested it with a targeted heal, but there is nothing in the description that specifies that it has to be targeted.

I am getting no buff icon, nor is the damage of my attacks changing in the tooltip. To test it, I was holding block, just to see if a buff icon showed up. So, it should have gone ahead and stacked up to 3, but nothing.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Has to be a direct heal on another player.​​

Honor proc's by direct heals on another friendly target, so this can be pets or players.

Passive heals (even when there is nothing to heal) such as Medical Nanites and Seraphim heals can also proc it.

It's why Inventor AT's will usually have Honor constantly stacking away when they have their pets out (if they take Honor).

Man, I wish they had made these specifications in the description. I now have it on two characters on which it does not work.

So, I know Arbiter Mastery does not proc it, but what about Sentinal Aura? The one that pulses a heal every 3 seconds.

Also, what about Sentinal Mastery?

It doesn't proc from Sentinel Aura or Mastery either. If it did, many more people would be using that synergy, given how popular Sentinel is for support and some tanks.

some consistency would be nice. Not every spec should be a "special case" scenario.

Yeah, it would have been nice if the devs who made the Specializations were actually allowed to finish them instead of being carted off to some other game. That's why specs are so jank, the specs went live and then before the team could actually start taking feedback and fixing issues they had to go work on NWO.​​

Pretty sure it was Gentleman Crush to blame, and he didn't get carted off, he left on his own accord. I very much doubt he would have actually fixed anything, though; he seemed to prefer to go off and create a new broken thing rather than fixing his previous broken stuff.

I'm sure it was just coincidence then that the team at the time got carted off shortly after that.​​

Okay, well, that explains a lot.
