When I started to play this game in 2015 and aquired my first restoration staff, I was under the impression that its light and heavy 'attacks' will heal friendly targets. I went to show my new awesome healing abilities to the next friendly creature, which, unfortunately, was one of the town guards in Rivenspire. He made it quite clear to me that things do not work as I assumed.

Nearly three years later it turns out that I was just ahead of my time, and he is just a backwardly poser.
