hmm just wondering why doesnt the amount healed show up as numbers? is it a setting?

if it isnt i think it wld be a good addition to the game. ( Maybe u could implement the amount healed in Blue or Green fonts. ) Letting healers see how much they heal for.. or even maybe crits..

im sure that would give clerics something to look forward to. instead of DDs comparing how much they hit for / crit for. Clerics can discuss how much they heal or heal crit for. just a thought :)

    It would be nice yes, but then we would have more people "bragging" about their crits and what not.

    Good idea. It could be as you can see damage in red numbers you could see healing in green numbers. Not just in chat window.

    But how would that work with healing over time? Can a DoT crit?

    yeaa sometimes it gets really boring to heal in long fights.. it would really be nice to be able to see how much ur heal heals for.. to prevent me from falling asleep heh

    and to be able to see how much IH ticks for each second or something.. do heals even crit btw?

    From a common sense point of view heals should never crit, since crits only effect attacking skills. But the game might have a different formula for it, but I highly doubt it though..

    A DoT can crit, but only on the initial hit (at least that I'm aware of). Afterward, the damage that would normally be done by the skill is still done. There isn't a chance for the damage after the first hit to suddenly crit. If healing can crit, I'd assume it would follow the same mechanics as this.

    Venomancers are Female. Barbarians are male. It will forever be this way. So suck it up and deal with it already.

    And also healing numbers should see the healed person too. Sometimes I heal together with cleric and tanker even don't know it.b:laugh He think that just cleric was healing, but without my healing he would be death. Especially with sutra I can heal more than 7K+ in 6s. So sometimes we deserve some respect too.b:victory

    thanks guys.. really glad to see so many replies so quickly :) my first time posting something heh.

    anyways.. if the numbers show up we can then confirm whether heals or certain heals crit or not.. instead of myths and hearsay yea?

    thereafter, clerics maybe even spec differently.. maybe high dex for crit healing where certain bosses hit really hard. while another cleric is stacking IH. just a scenario :)

    yay! got my avatar up. hmm ok btw do devs and gms even notice these suggestions? I'm very sure this addition would be very much anticipated by ALL clerics. so i hope it comes true in the near future :)

    oh btw would a poll make GMs n Devs notice this more?
