magelight // inner light question.

does the magelight // inner light affect healing spells?

I've used it quite a lot and haven't noticed any increase in critical healing.

Have I just missed it or is it bugged or is it maybe not intended to affect healing spells in the first place?

    Yes, as it affects spell critical chance, and last time I checked, any non-potion healing skill is a "Spell".

    Restoration Staff abilities currently can't crit.

    Some Templar heals can and will be affected by this.

    I hope the Resto-staff thing is a bug and not intended.

    Correction: Blessing of protection & grand healing are reported as unable to crit from this buff. All others can.

    You know if that's intended or a bug? Guess i will have to change my healing build a bit then

    This explains crit healing in great detail.

    what a horrible, irrelevant, and useless question.

    the real unanswered question is why the hell does inner light still summon an external glowing, 'swooshing' ball?

    I was about to make a topic about it.. it's just HORRIBLE, not to mention it makes you see nothing when you don't play zoomed out to maximum.

    Also, who made it glow like that in the first place? Like, "hell, I can't see those pesky assassins, will a giant ball of light shining into my eyes help?"

    20% spell crit is too huge to let go, but that effect (along with MYFACEGLOWSBLUE) is just too ugly (not to mention that color mix-match if you're playing pyro)

    So sneaking people know that you have mage light up... maybe if it orbited lower on the body... like the knees or something people would be ok with this. Point is that to balance things ML has to be visible enough for sneakers to see it from outside its max visibility range.... probably. :p

    I hope they don't change the graphic effect for mage light/inner light. I like it, and I don't want it to become smaller/more sidelined.

    I agree, Buff that is visible on characters (blue glow) is great, changing the ball to STATIONARY would also be great, now, it's just annoing.

    But the sound of eternam magic mosquito! AARrrghhh....

    This should be changed - and people who thik so should post it on /feedback
