since the sorrows update, now you can see your divine favor healing bonus. Also, word of healing heals for the extra amount below 50%, because the divine favor is not applied first. GJ anet. My favorite spell is now no longer bugged.

Does it apply the initial heal first? Or does it look at the target's health first of all, before adding any other kind of healing?

Oooo, excellent. I've been using that spell ever since I got it as basically a secondary orison for healing spam and the occassional last-ditch-effort healing spike, nice to see they made it as useful as it should have been to begin with.

Not in the update notes. And neither is an ER fix. Please tell me they just forgot to put it in the update notes... (haven't played yet)

Dwayna's Kiss was almost always better than Word of Healing and freed up your elite. In my opinion, anyway. But if WoH really is fixed now... hmm... might have to reconsider this one. Same cost, same recharge, same cast time, both have condtions attached to the healing amount...

Nah, I still think hexes and enchantments are so prevalent in the current metagame that DK is a better conditional heal.

Now if WoH was a 5-mana Heal Other...

btw, can anybody confirm or deny whether or not divine boon has also been fixed with word of healing? Even if it has, i probably still wont bring it to tombs, but im just wondering.

On the topic of boon, casting it on yourself while enchanted with it no longer triggers it :x
