    The "exact" wording :|

    btw if smth bad in pvp - use smth different. It's not your class ability that makes your class worse - everyone could use it. So everyone on an equal footing.

    I haven't used it in a long time but it is sub-par because it scales off of your damage shield, which is already nerfed by 50% from Battle Spirit and then the heal itself might also be nerfed by 60% again (less sure about this).

    It's even worse in non-CP where you don't have the extra 30% Magicka, which makes your shield that much smaller even before the 50% Battle Spirit nerf.

    And, of course, the BRP Resto was also nerfed in the last patch.

    Some class might still be able to use it, but I find that Radiation Regeneration is basically always the better option if you must use a heal from the Restoration Staff skill line (aka you are a magBlade).

    With brp resto you can sti get some fat ticks on it especially if you are low on hp.
    Works best if you can layer another damage shield on top or if you can disengage like on magblade.

    so aside from class or builds, how is healing ward up to standards on it's own compared to other skills like radiating regen? Radiating regen is so much better, and makes Healing ward useless to even use. The shield is literally 2k xD and if u take 1 single light attack or a dot tick that healing is robbed from you. LMAO

    My magicka was in the low to mid 30k range (depending on my food), and the shield was getting busted before it had time to heal me.

    They ruined it. Had some good iterations but ultimately it's not worth the slot anymore.

    Make Restoration staff viable for solo play. I still play with it in solo PVP but it's definitely not a great back bar weapon. Sadly. It should be a viable defensive tool, just like the sword and shield is.

    Yeah! Run around and use healing ward for 2k shields that may give 1.5k healing and it comes at a bigger magicka cost than radiating regen for 2-3k healing/second and comes at half the cost. LOL

    Healing ward will fall off after 1 GCD since shields are so vulnerable, but Radiating regen is safe to stay. :)

    Cheaper, effective, and reliable.

    My healing ward is actually 4-11k (unbuffed, and yes in PvP), but okay. I'm all for buffing skills, especially ones that get auto-casted with resto ult. Please do it, I need an easy mode button added back into the game next to my "I win!" one.

    It should not be buffed until Stragglers nerfed.
