Disappointing Miracle Healer testing

Hey guys, I've finally gotten the 4 set bonus of the Miracle Healer set and I'm incredibly disappointed with the results.
"Your encounter powers causes nearby allies to be healed for 5% of your maxiumum HP."
First things first, the tooltip is lying. It does not heal nearby allieS, it's only one nearby ally. So after recieving this information you may ask, how does the healing priority work? If you are not full health it will almost always heal you instead of your party member regardless of Hp.
example: you have 99% hp, your friend has 20% hp, the heal will still go on you.
The range of this heal is ok, but since you will get most of these heals anyway it doesn't really matter. This sadly makes this an utterly usless set bonus that I've been trying so hard to get. On every encounter you use, it heals someone (regardless of HP lost and most likely you) for 1250 (at 25000 HP).
I'm actually really disappointed and I sincerely hope this is a bug. I really hope cryptic gives the guys who made the tooltips in this game the boot, because they're utterly terrible at their job.
edit: Like deistik pointed out, the one positive thing is that it ignores righteousness on yourself.

Although I'm still tempted to complete it, because after all, a non-righteousness debuffed heal, is a non-righteousness debuffed heal on yourself.
1) 850 recovery - 2x High Prophet and 2x Miracle Healer
2) Beacon of Faith - if anyone could confirm the duration?
3) Grand Templar - if anyone could confirm the duration?
I'm honestly looking for options right now, because now I'm sad :-c
When Delves hasnt been up I have been searching the Auction house constantly for Miracle Healer gloves, because they were (and still are incredibly rare). I also spent so much time finding out that the miracle healer head infact has the same name as the high prophet's helm. I still remember what I paid for all of the pieces though.
Head: 2.2m
Gloves: 1.5m
Boots: 3m
Chest: 2m
I bought boots and chest incredibly early which made all these incredibly good purchases. Note that I have been lurking the auction house ALOT to get very good deals on these.
edit: Someone in another thread said the 450 crit/defense party buff is only up for like 4 or 5 seconds. Sooo yeah!
It does only heal one target even though all 5 had lost HP.
Honestly, with the heavy DR on stats, I don't think there are any real better options like double 2 piece. At least Miracle Healer is more healing for me!
You dont need any more healing, and with power having the least amount of DR (or any for that matter) I believe a 2P Grand Templar and 2P Beacon might be BIS for the time being. Atleast until they buff our 4P bonuses to be more on par with others classes.
Thanks for the thread Spoohtheone, I can now stop farming T2 pieces now that miracle healer has been found even less useful then the other 2 sets.
I just finished the set and tested in pvp and in a quest area. There is no internal cooldown on the proc, but being single target is disappointing. I was wondering in pvp why I wouldn't see the heal sometimes. I must have healed someone behind me or w/e. I tested in pve with just myself and I healed on every single encounter cast (you have to be damaged of course).
Very disappointing after all the effort it took to get the set.
You say you don't need any more healing yet you say to stack power over anything else?
With this setup trash is a joke since Cleric damage is ridiculous in AOE packs aswell as having the only real support ability worth a **** down the whole time.
TL;DR: Power is more for the damage then the heals.
If you have actually looked at the power stats, you can see that the damage gain per power is ridiculously low. It's so low that anything else will literally give you more dps (Recovery, crit). On top of that you gain more than enough power from any of the tier sets passively.
You are looking at it wrong, it's not 200 to your heals or whatnot, its like adding another 200 to your weapon damage.
so at around 5k power (which i believe gives the +200 to damage/healing) if you have the CN weapon which has 820 top end, it's like changing that to 1020 top end.
It adds WEAPON damage, not damage.
I can honestly say that if my group wipes, it is because I have died first. Otherwise I keep them healed just fine. So I don't care that it doesn't heal ALL party members. But me getting +1400 more heals every time I hit an encounter is HUGE! And as someone has already mentioned we get the full heal (not 60% of it). We don't get massive spike heals but with all off those sources of healing, it is really starting to add up (Astral Shield, Astral Seal, Encounters, Encounter Procs from MH Set, Regeneration, Moon Touched-Hallowed Ground, LifeDrinker Enchant, etc.)
I can't speak from experience (I'm only level 44 atm) but sounds like it makes a lot of sense. I do want the Devs to fix it so that heal applies to everyone that was in range of the encounter power that proc'd the heal, but I'd love to get that a non-Righteousness debuffed self-heal every time I used an encounter power.
No, you have to make sure u get the right helm as they both have the same name. If you browse the AH, usually the more expensive one is the one you want.
I've done some testing aswell and 4/4 miracle does around 8-14% of my total healing in dungeons.
Plus, it doesn't have an internal CD, so it goes incredibly well with Healing Word, if you use it.
I'm at a point where 450 increase to any of my stats doesn't make a difference, so this kind of healing is pretty good if you ask me.
You've just replied to a necro'd thread from pre-patch, where the set bonus was scheduled to be fixed.
By your comments, I'm assuming the Devs have done their job right this time...?
No, they haven't. It's still busted, although they did say they would look into it.
for PvP "healer" cleric?
hmm kinda strange since someone else on the forum earlier this week (http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?350262-Miracle-Healer-fixed/page3&highlight=miracle+healer) said it had an internal cd of about 10 secs.
Tested it today and it doesn't have any cd.. was spamming healing words like a madman and each time I got healed by seeker's beacon.
