Ladies and gentlemen of the holy paladin community… hello.<\/p>\n
You are probably all caught up on this stuff, but since it was a lingering issue throughout the Pandaria beta and well into live, I thought I’d actually update here. Thanks to Ophelie’s post<\/a> that reminded me I hadn’t updated the situation!<\/p>\n Shortly after 5.1 came out, I sent a note to Jacii<\/a>, a holy paladin in Apotheosis<\/a>. I was like, “dude, can you please do me a favour and see if they actually fixed Holy Avenger like GC promised they would<\/a>?”<\/p>\n He happily obliged, for which I thanked him profusely. Then I got caught up in holidays and family and junk.<\/p>\n So here, now, are the results of Jacii’s testing:<\/p>\n Holy Avenger will now grant 30% extra healing to Flash of Light and Divine Light on the Beacon of Light target while active.<\/p>\n Additionally, they will continue to give you three Holy Power when benefiting from Tower of Radiance, when Holy Avenger is active.<\/p>\n Here are the averages of about 10 casts WITHOUT Holy Avenger active:<\/p>\n Holy Shock – 34,755 And here they are WITH Holy Avenger active:<\/p>\n Holy Shock\u00a0 – 45,147 Jacii kindly also included the percentage differences, which means I don’t have to do math. Yay!<\/p>\n Holy Shock – 29.90% Obviously, the offsets here and there are due to heals healing for a RANGE of healing and not always, say, 35k, 25k, 47k and 62k. It seems as though Holy Avenger now properly grants 30% extra healing to all heals that grant Holy Power, as the tooltip indicates! Yay!<\/p>\n If you want to see the screenshots from Jacii, they’re all available here: http:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/pD0qr<\/a><\/p>\n Anyhow, my apologies to being late on this, but that pesky “real life” thing tends to get in the way an awful lot. :) Thanks again to Jacii from Apotheosis for getting me the info (like, six weeks ago) and thanks again to Ophelie for reminding me, however unintentionally. ;)<\/p>\n
