crit heals in summerset

Syiccal

can someone confirm for me please if heals will or will not be able to crit in summerset patch.

Heals will continue to crit, BUT on LIVE your critt heals also scaled on your %Critical Damage stat, witch it will no longer do in summerset.

They can crit, but will no longer be affected by crit damage . For example templar gain 10% crit damage from one of their passives, that will no longer add to your crit heals.

Completely unnecessary nerf. Surviving in PvP against stamina will now become extremely hard for mag builds.

Becomes harder for stam builds to heal as well, and as they lack shields, they have a bit more difficulty with defile compared to mag builds.

that would mean they can not crit.
because if the multiplier is 1.0 you crit for the same amount as non crit.

that's putting it nicely.

This sounds like a pretty big nerf that no one asked for I don’t get it. Why?

Wish they'd just change healing received so it only affects heals you receive from sources that aren't your own (yes I'm a DK & know that my passive helps me with vigor/rally).

Lexxypwns

To be clear, this only effects Templars, NBs, and people using major/minor force or shadow stone.

CP based crit damage buffs specify healing and damage

StrangeForce001

I believe you gain a base crit damage of 1.5, however I am not sure if this applies to healing. You should gain the healing bonus from the Elfborn CP perk. Any other crit damage buff would not apply to healing.

I surmise the devs feel crit healing is over performing, and I can understand this. Crit healing is really strong where someone on death’s door can completely recover to full health with one spell.

No, it means that increasing crit damage will only increase crit damage from 1.5x to a higher value while crit heals will remain at 1.5x.

To increase crit heals you will have to use stats that specifically state critical healing, like Elfborn passive for example.

Disclaimer : Necromancer is strong with this one, but I'm not sure to understand.

In conclusion does Elfborn affect self heals abilities ?(like the DK Dragon Blood, or any Resto staffs abilities) ? Can healing crits ?
Edit: Does proc sets (like earthgore) can crits too ?

Gatviper

No proc sets crit, they do in numbers what you see equipped. Heals only crit for normal 150% instead of their 100% of shown number, with the chance to crit based on what your Crit Chance stat is.
