Looking For Guild

Scourge Healing deals around 30 more damage than Healing Seed does when both are at the same level. Since Healing Seed heals the person that takes damage, they should activate Scourge Healing on themselves, which activates Healing Seed, which activates Scourge Healing, etc. This should kill the person pretty quickly.

I haven't been able to test this, but it seems like it should work. Can anyone confirm this?

I think he wanted to pack Scourge Healing to kill enemy seeders.

that said, the trick probably won't work. Seed can't be cast on yourself. And the SH will trigger on the caster (the healer). there is no infinite loop there.

There is if you just beat the person who has Healing Seed on him, he gets healed which triggers (if it trigger's, i guess yes why not) Scourge Healing, which means dead healer probably.

It is merely a chain you repeat. and can not control (seed).

"What If"

You have 4 Monks, 2 on each team.
All have Healing Seed and Scourge Healing.
They all Cast Scourge on seperate targets, then Seed eachother.

Then what?

I dont think that scourge healing would or should activate healing seed but I dont see why healing seed wouldn't or shouldn't activate scourge healing. Perhaps if you put scourge healing on a foe and then someone seeded him, when you attacked that person the seed would fire which would fire scourge healing.

There is no way for it to work unless your opponent has 2 monks with seeds on each other, and your monks SH them both, otherwise, its just not possible
odds are, the scourge healing works like backfire, immetiately after the heal spell is cast, rather than when the actual hp gain occurs

Of course if that were true, SH ought to give that healer degen for breezes/shield of regen just because

I'd say that would make SH a bit too powerful, and you would never see a monk use healing seed ever again in PvP.

that's my $0.02.

For 10 seconds, whenever target other ally takes damage, that ally and all adjacent allies gain 3-25 health.

GAIN != HEAL

Scourge healing doesnt work on necros gainspells (Vampgaze...Bloodrenewal) as well. However... it should work to kill those W/mos using healing hands, necros using Aura of the Lich, Parasitic Bond... and so on... just read the exact skill descriptions.
