This will probly be moved, but i wanted it here to see wat other clerics thought of the idea ^^.

i was thinking in a TT tonight, "y don't heal crit?" It's a stupid question but theres no proof as to them criting or not cause we have no idea how much were healing at a time.

So we got to thinking, wat if heals show'd up on ur screen like dmg does on a mob. like if i'm healing a tank and use wellspring, in blue(or green xP) writing 3425 poped up over his head and thats how much it healed him for. or if i used ih it could show up like a DoT skill. that way we could track out heals and know wat our limits r, other than eyeballing it.

also it would hlp prove if heals crit by having "Critical Heal" pop up like "critical hit" does haha

Share ur ideas ppl, i wanna see blue numbers goin crazy on my screem as i spam ih xD

    I think this would be highly useful because every level I make it to seems to be a whole new learning process. People have different HP, my heal only does so much and I have to eye it a lot before I know what I can and cannot do. A shown number would help a lot, then I would know for sure if something was out damaging my heal.

    That's a pretty good idea, although with stacking heal spells that bring HP up over time like IronHeart, the heal numbers would be a bit... spammy. Especially with 2+ clerics healing a single target. I'm a bit on the fence with this one.

    Not a bad one, but it would get annoying. Make it optional. I personally would like to use it to see How much improvement in healing I get when I upgrade weapon.

    Well it's a good AND bad idea xD
    Good because it would feed my curiousity and I'd have another thing to shout except "crit of X", I could go like: "crit heal of X" :D

    Bad because, frankly, it'd be another thing to be added to my panic attacks during spam healing! Just think of it

    Example: "Omg! I healed for 4k omg not good the mob is doing 4.5K *spams some more IH* Omg noes I only healed for 3.8k this time, omg we're all gonna die" xD Neah, seriously, it'd just be another stress adding factor and when I'm on my cleric I feel enough stress as I twitch every time someone's HP bar goes down a tiny bit b:surrender

    well its the same as a dot skill, and have u ever seen a fist bms dmg go up? lulz

    but only u would see the numbers, like when someone hits a mob, u dont see their dmg pop up, u only see ur dmg pop up. thus meaning only u can see ur healing numbers ;)

    it could be used not only for clerics, but fer bms, barbs, venos, and wiz's.

    lol A fully Stacked IH can overpower alot......So you really don't need to worry. I survived 2 Davinci's pounding on me In 1-3 just by spamming IH on myself. lol

    Like I said though....should make it optional if anything.

    Oh yes, you're right. My head was in console RPGs where you see everyone's damage and healing. Spam wouldn't be as bad as I thought, so yes the idea's looking more appealing now!

    well w/ the numbers u could tell if u can heal them alone, or if u needed some help, making it less of a stress then not knowing and failing, soon after to get yelled at by the party =/

    Lol, I was thinking of critical healing. I wanted to make a light cleric. If it is possible to crit heal, I would definitely play as one. This is a great way to check =^^=

    Maybe put it in suggestions :D I'd vote yes.

    Did you find your heal greater than an arcane at times?

    Oh while we're at it, why not make the heals use masteries so they heal more, i mean clerics already heal pretty well as it already but adding some useless content such as crite healing wont cause any unbalanced side effect.

    can do same for veno too god knows they dont heal enough to keep herc alive.

    Ok i moved this to the Suggestion thread and added a poll so the GM's can see how many ppl want this and how many don't. take it as the un-official, official vote for it xP.

    i was thinking in a TT tonight, "y don't heal crit?" It's a stupid question but theres no proof as to them criting or not cause we have no idea how much were healing at a time.

    So we got to thinking, wat if heals show'd up on ur screen like dmg does on a mob. like if i'm healing a tank and use wellspring, in blue(or green xP) writing 3425 poped up over his head and thats how much it healed him for. or if i used ih it could show up like a DoT skill. that way we could track out heals and know wat our limits r, other than eyeballing it.

    it would also work for other classes too, not just for clerics. like a bm's sutra, barbs sunder, venos pet heals, and wiz's morning dew.

    the numbers would only show up on ur screen and the person ur healing's screen.=brought up by Vraii ^^

    also it would hlp prove if heals crit by having "Critical Heal" pop up like "critical hit" does haha

    Share ur ideas ppl, i wanna see blue numbers goin crazy on my screem as i spam ih xD


    if u dissagree, or have an idea to make it better. just post or else it wont get any better =/

    Ok, I was actually thinking about this very thing the other day, and I think I have a good, albeit long, way of testing; just as with testing any other critical hit related topic, you need a MASSIVE sample to draw from.

    Best way is 3 ppl, all in pk mode. For our purposes, I say barb, wiz, and cleric. Everyone fly to a remote location where no one will hassle you, maybe where the lvl 102mobs are.

    Have barb strip off all gear, and wiz knock him down to about 1/4 hp. Have cleric use wellspring surge, taking note of barb's hp before and after. Repeat. A lot.

    To make it easier, your cleric will want a a high critical hit %, which isn't always easy. Another way to do it would be w/ wizard doing the heal, as LA wiz will have higher natural crit than most clerics.

    You get the idea. After a few hundred heals, some statistician can figure out how many, you "should" have gotten the heal to crit. If not....

    we dono for a fact that heals dont already crit ;)

    im just saying to make the number visable so we dont have to guess wat were really healing, and it i said it could be for the other classes heals too. like a crit surta, sunder, pet heal, wiz's heal thingy(forgot the name, fail -.-), and such.

    I wantz more axez for my collectionz. Give it! Else we'll test that crit heal :D

    Anyway, I know I don't make the same amount of heal every time for my pet. It isn't constant. So, there may be a possibility to crit heal considering it goes on mag attk. range and mag. atk. can be effected by criticals.
