Does a poison that heals the user count as "healing an ally"?

Krayl

Just curious - prob a dumb question but I've never used or researched poisons in the game.

If I use a poison that damages an enemy and also heals me, does that condition qualify as 'healing an ally' in terms of a monster set?

for example, the 2 piece of the symphony of blades monster set:

(2 items) When you heal an ally whose primary resource is under 50%, grant them Meridia’s Favor, restoring 2325 of that resource every 1 second for 6 seconds. 18 second cooldown.

Also, can "an ally" be yourself - or is it always another person? I suppose those are my main two questions.

Usually "an ally" includes healing yourself. Cant think of a case where it doesn't tbh.

Not sure on the poison side though.

Troll King is "When you heal a friendly target" and it can proc on yourself so its inconsistent, you'll have to test it.

Tasear

Healing Ally is inconsistent in game. Sometimes it includes self other times it doesn't.

Gorrest

Any healing spell that can heal others are counted as "Healling Ally", so things like Vigor, Vines, BoL, and Rapid Regen.

While things that can only heal yourself is not counted as "Healing Ally", so things like Blood, Rally, and Betty Netch resummon.

generally yes, but not for that monster set, it does not proc on the person wearing it, on purpose, see here-

@ZOS_Liforce Symphony of Blades was designed as a support set, and the wearer cannot target themselves. For recent sets that target yourself and allies, we try to include the phrase "you or an ally" or "you and your allies". We plan on reviewing the tooltips of older item sets to keep them in line with the new verbal standard.

This is going to be a strong set. I mean sustain is supposed to be part of power creep and now theyre giving you 4650 recovery of EVERY stat for six seconds? A 12 second cool down is not bad at all. This won't be terribly necessary in PvE I don't think, but this is another example of a set that gives large groups a huge advantage.

That looks really nice for two of my Tanks are heavily invested in Magicka with lower stamina.

Some monster sets that specify "An ally" count yourself in that condition, but some of them I'm actually not sure about.

This will be ridiculous on a healer with orbs. I can't wait

It can only proc on one Ally every 18 seconds. Hardy op.

Iskiab

It will be OP on a healer once people figure out how to make it always proc on the tank.
