[FIXED] PvP Power vs. Healing

[Dreadblade]

You might want to consider this since we're going with 5.1 values for resil, pvp power and battle fatigue.

1. Before patch 5.3, PvP Power wasn't increasing percentage-based healing.

Answer - (Systems Design Team): In patch 5.3, all specs (even classes without healing specs) benefit from a PvP Power-to-healing conversion. This means that any heal should benefit from PvP Power; this includes percentage heals such as Second Wind and Recuperate. Previously things like Second Wind and Recuperate weren’t benefitting from PvP Power at all.

2. Also before 5.3, healing benefit received from PvP Power was 50% lower. This basically means that if I have 40% bonus damage from PvP Power, I will only get 20% bonus healing.

Answer - (Systems Design Team): We increased the PvP Power benefit to healing from 50% to 100% and increased Battle Fatigue by a proportional amount. These two changes should keep healing at about the same strength as in patch 5.2, but make PvP Power as a stat more attractive to healers. We discussed flag carriers a bit in an earlier question; we’re not really worried about tanks anywhere but CTF, and we have a CTF-specific solution.

3. After 5.3, healing benefits were changed according to specs, as follows:

PvP Power bonus to healing is now based on class and specialization. Healing specializations receive a 100% bonus to healing from PvP Power. Damage specializations for Druids, Monks, Paladins, Priests, and Shamans receive a 70% bonus to healing from PvP Power. All other specializations and classes (including tanking) receive a 40% bonus to healing from PvP Power.

Here's a screenshot of my death pact healing me for 327k:

Spoiler:

It heals for 50% HP (which would be 220k) but it gets increased by pvp power +49,19% => 327k

[Shocker]

Fixed. Healing now benefits only 50% from PvP Power
Also, PvP Power now also increases absorbs
