The little healing GFX played by prism procs (as well as the procs themselves once there are more than ten people within 30') is literally enough to tank the server as well as any client in the area. The lag will literally not cease until every thing prism procced on is dead.

Prism seems to proc on 0 heals just as reliably as on actual heals and I think fixing this might go a long way.

    Last night I was doing some experimentation in a large group of people (30+) with Prism on my Paladin to see what might be causing the lag. Sometimes when Prism is in effect I don't experience any lag at all and other times it's game stopping. What I believe happens is when multiple Paladins (who have Prism) use their daily powers around the same time it creates a ping-pong effect where heals are bouncing back and forth between them and Prism just keeps it going in rapid succession until the 20s Prism effect lapses. If that is the cause, an easy fix might be to prevent Paladins who have Prism from being healed by other Paladin's Prism effects. That would prevent the heals from bouncing back and forth.

    The 0 heal procs are result of multiple prism healing loop. Prevent the loop and it will drastically reduce issue.

    Similar issue happens with DP + KV from GF, but since usually they have target cap and there is much less damage than healing going on its not that bad.

    Gentleman Crush says he's fixed it internally and hopes it will be in a patch very soon.
