Question about % based heals, and healing done/taken buffs

Do buffs like Minor Mending (+8% healing done) affect the healing received from skills that heal by a percentage of damage dealt, ie a Templar's Puncturing Sweep morph, healing them for 35% of the damage dealt?

    Yes, it does. The calculation for healing you receive from your own heals is:
    Healing = (1 + HealingDone)*(1 + HealingTaken)*(1 + HealingReceived)
    

    Note that HealingTaken is somehow related to some siphoning skills and is only used on a few sets. So, for example, if you have +8% Healing Done and +12% Healing Received your total healing bonus would be:
    Healing = (1 + 0.08)*(1 + 0)*(1 + 0.12) = 121%
    

    or a +21% healing bonus. For reference you can use our Build Editor which has all of the game calculations like this as we understand it (click on a computed stat on the right hand side).

    I'm not sure that minor mending would impact the healing from sweeps, since it caps at 35% of the damage caused then the only way to improve sweeps healing would be by doing more damage with it.

    35% is the base healing you get from Puncturing Sweeps but tooltips like this are smart enough to update according to whatever +healing effects you have on you. For example, my PS tooltip has a base of 36% (from CP) and it goes up to 42% with Minor Mending and a Powered weapon equipped.

    Skills like sweeps and strife have their base percent modifier (% of damage done) updated based on what healing done or taken percentage increses you have active.
