healing springs is no longer viable since the nerf...

It was only useful because of the magicka return, it could be fixed by only costing half as much magicka to cast

✭Of course it's still viable.
Hit 3 people and it costs like ~100 magicka, which is extremely cheap.
It's just not optimal to use at all times, everywhere, for everything ever and still get more magicka back than it cost to cast, like it was prior to 1.4.3.
It was stupid to have a heal that didn't only cost nothing, but paid YOU magicka for using it.
And this is coming from a healer.

Voodoo✭✭✭✭agreed with /\ ..now maybe healing wont be so easy sauce and there will be less healers in the game as a result ...and I can go back to healing haha.1 -

✭I just got healing springs ironically enough. It still seems useful. I was using illustrious healing before now because I never ask other people what is best to use >.<Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.0 -
Stranglehands✭✭✭✭If you want magicka, shoot stuff with your heal staff. You can even do it while healing springs is channeling - multitaskingEdited by Stranglehands on September 17, 2014 4:29PM.kcoR gnillaF si noitadnuoF esohw ETIYREP oT3 -
jnjapexb14_ESO✭✭✭Nerf is fine. It can still be spammed just not quite indefinitely anymore. Then after 30 casts for sorcs it's just a 4 second pause for Dark Exchange and then 30 more casts.1

Demira✭✭✭maybe people will roll out of sh*t like they are supposed to be doing instead of relying the healer to heal them through it...
Wishful dream there! HAHA!1 -

That only works when you're in range....there's lots of times that isn't possible.1 -

✭✭I'm confused. I thought it only reduced the target count for the magicka return, not for how many people it can heal, as was implied in a comment here.
How many people is it currently healing per cast?EP: Slania Isara : Harambe Was an Inside Job0 -

It costs 273 magicka with a max return of 78. It has never been free as you suggest and certainly doesn't cost 100.1 -

It's not viable anymore because the only reason you would use that morph is for the magicka return. Illustrious Healing makes more sense to take now as it heals more.OrangeTheCat wrote: »

It doesn't say specifically how many people it heals but only returned magicka for 6, now it returns for 3. The other morph, illustrious healing, makes more sense now.I'm confused.

You're obviously not built for cost reduction, then. Sorry that this nerf hits you harder than people who have optimized their builds for lower costs. : /
After magicka return, it costs me about around 120 magicka per cast.
Prior to 1.4.3, it netted me magicka when hitting 6 people.
This is both on my NB and Sorc.0
