Healing Stream scales with +heal

[gotmilk0112 10]

Why does nobody point this out? For the longest time I thought Healing Stream was fucking useless, but now I find out that it scales with +heal gear.

 

With +317 bonus heal, rank 5 Healing Stream Totem is ticking for 62 healing every 2 seconds. So for just 60 mana, I'm doing ~1800 healing on 5 people, over 60 seconds.

 

Is this a bug, or intended? I've never seen a Resto shaman guide mention +heal scaling on healing stream totem.

That's great to know because I thought it was useless as well. Following this for sure to see if this was a bug and it gets fixed cause if not that is nice.

Yeah, may come as a surprise to you, but not everyone is in full T2 like you apparently are

Full T2 is shit.

This totem should has penaltys from bonus heal like other dots (1 / n, where n = count of ticks) and like AOE-spell. Magma-totem should has similar penaltys from SPD.

Healing Stream has a custom coefficient. It heals for 6% of +healing every tick (for 180% total over 60 seconds). If you're a full resto shaman, it should be 8.25% instead (+25% from 5/5 Restorative Totems and +10% from Purification). It's not the only totem like that. Searing Totem does 8% of a Shaman's spell damage on every hit. With 3/3 Call of Flame, it should be 9.2%. Both totems tick every two seconds.

I believe Magma Totem and Fire Nova totem should both have normal spell damage coefficients though.

That it is. If you're in full T2, you clearly didn't read my guide.

I think I remember a short lived bug on live where Sentry totem could be dropped while you were falling or jumping off of a cliff to prevent fall damage. Is that the case here on Elysium?

Hm, looking over it I'm not sure what the 1.12.1 scaling was exactly. It did scale since 1.11, and it was noted in wowwiki during the time of 2.0.1 that it scaled at 6%, but 2.0.1 already reworked spell damage and healing coefficients.

It seems that someone recalculated coefficients by hand here https://github.com/elysium-project/server/pull/447 which really doesn't answer the question if Healing Stream was a custom coefficient like Searing Totem or not.

EDIT: Someone here said it scaled at about 2.5% https://web.archive.org/web/20061116064046/http://thottbot.com/?sp=10463

Kronos has:

Healing Stream Totem - 65% - 2.16% per tick (30)

Not saying it's right or not, but it seems pretty fair for a passive drop and forget.
