Yes and yes. You'll get the most self-heal bang for your buck by having points in increased healing received and increased healing initiated (separate trees).

Elfborn is going to give you very minimal increase, as it only increases your crit damage/healing, not overall damage/healing. You'll get about a 25% return on the value Elfborn gives you (and that assumes a 50% crit chance as the base).

(For instance if you have 50% crit chance now, it results in a 25% equivalent increase in DPS/Heals.) That's 50% chance of +50% damage = 25 % increase.

Sink 25(?) CP's into Elfborn to get +10% crit damage, your 50% damage increase turns into 55% (it's +crit damage, not + overall damage when crit'ing) which results in +27.5% damage/healing.

That's a 2.5% increase out of your +10% from Elfborn (and about 25 hard earned CP's)

At less than 50% crit chance, those numbers (and the increases they provide) are even lower.

Blessed works on base value, so you get 1 for 1. Quick Recovery (Warrior/The Lord) does the same. Use them together, and they stack.

Short version, better results from +1 point in Blessed vs +2 points in Elfborn.

Adding to the second post, DK green dragon blood heals for a % of missing health. Those to CP areas may or may not help GDB since the mechanic is different. A DK that has looked into it would need to answer. It's a fairly unique heal in the game.

GDB stack with heal recived

I believe this is correct. At least it seems that way on my DK, although I haven't specifically tested it. I suspect that the way it works is that GDB looks at the % of missing health to determine the base amount that it will heal, and then the passives are modifiers to this base amount.

there are some DK out there who use the other moph o GDB and after you use this once, you heal urself more with it.

so lets say

i have 20k max and atm 5k. Coagulating Blood is healing me this time 5k
after i drop aigane to 5k and the buff is still active, it heals me 7k.

ist simplay first Coagulating Blood determine the effectif heal of your health, and add the +% heal recived.

Healing received is healing received, regardless of the source.

Likewise, healing initated (potion, spell, skill) works the same.

If it heals you/it's healing you somehow produce, it counts, unless it happens to be bugged.

The only unique mechanic is the part that determines the amount. It's still a heal otherwise, just like all the rest.
