Hopefully this is the last one -.-'...

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 =/

    Agreed.

    In any other game it shows. It gives you a better understanding of the skill. I dont see why it shouldnt here. Its a skill like any other, and all others show their value upon 'impact'.

    We don't have critical heals. Crit rate only affects ATTACKS on a mob or player. That's why they call it a critical HIT.

    "Healing the weak spot for massive heal" doesn't make any sense at all anyway.

    i like the idea of having heals show up. as a barb it would be really useful to know when i get healed, and for how much, cuz in situations such as TW the massive amount of dmg taken and healing from charms pots and clerics get really confusing if all you have to go on is the hp bar. sometimes i couldnt tell whether a cleric was healing me or not.

    Good idea if it would only show to squad members.

    If it was something anyone could see, Clerics would be b:bye for sure in TW and in PvP.

    Only if you can toggle it on and off and if it only would show the heal affecting me... I really do not need to get my screen spammed with numbers from everyone's BB heals or party heals, or even the tank's heals.

    If not, than I would demand that my pet heal amounts be broadcasted to everyone around me as well.

    well im sure if it was implemented it would work just the same as your damage does - only you get to see it (and if fighting another player, they do too). but yeah, the heal amount would be nice - I don't care about the type of heal so much as the amount of it. this way I dont have to get clerics to type out to me what their skill says and what their magic attack etc is, trying to figure the math out and see if their heals are adequate for a boss. I'd just know. While we're on the topic - it would also be nice to see the level of buffs we are given when we mouse over them.

    I love the idea.
    I also think that only the healer and target should see the heals though.

    All for itb:victory would definitely be something that needs a toggle on/off though.

    Could be added under the chat menu as well for what shows up in the dialog box such as the "other" section, or maybe even a "combat" one if there isn't already.

    if u put ur mouse over Critical hit in character screen it states, "Increases ur chance to do a critical hit, dealing more damage than your normal attack." so it doesn't say it does or doesn't affect heals. thus y i said it would be cool if it said "Critical HEAL"

    Good idea if it would only show to squad members.

    i don't see y it would show to everyone in range, cause u don't see other ppl's dmg unless they r hitting u. so only the healer and the healed would be able to see the numbers. it could also hlp to make to tell u if ur actually in BB. and if it's gonna keep u alive or not, rather than waiting till u die to find out ^^.


    i'm curious as to y you would want to be able to turn it off though? would u turn ur dmg numbers off if u could?
