Surge heal on crit doesn't work against blocking target.

Is that intended?

Probably not, but with threads like these you need to for example provide a video demonstration.

You can't crit a blocking target, so yes.

From 1.6.3 patchnote:
Surge (All Ranks & Morphs): This ability can now trigger off of doing damage to player characters that are using damage mitigation shields.

As i can understand trigger(for surge=heal trigger) not proc on shields.Same with NB Siphoning...
Siphoning Strikes: Reduced the damage penalty for having Siphoning Strikes active by 5%. Also, this ability (all ranks and morphs) can now trigger off of doing damage to player characters that are using damage mitigation shields.

Did you do damage to the target? There is a bug right now on PTS with stacking buffs, I've gotten down to 0 damage taken while blocking.

I think, it is supposed to trigger heals against damage shields now. I haven't payed attention, if it does. But I am actually pretty sure, that crits against shields aren't possible. I've got hit for 4.4 k from critical rush or how this gap closer is called. And the tooltip says 4.4 k. and since it is supposed to always crit....

But crits against blocking targets aren't possible, so we can't expect critical hit> heals there

That would be acceptable if the monstrosity of 3600CP permablocking immortal tank that can still kill someone in less than 10-15seconds didn't appear.

As a highly DPS focused character I wasn't even able to push him below 90% health. He didn't bother to even use GDB. He was fine to destroy me without loosing any kind of health. My stats were 3600CPs, 2470 weapon damage (proced to 3300), 35k stamina, 30k health, 54% critical.
