Unfortunately it’s not a bug, it’s working as intended. They changed it.

On our server this killed healers, in the last couple of outpost rush games I was the only player with a Life Staff. Since I cant heal myself anymore without wasting big CCs, I can see why that is the case. Will probably just switch to a generic STR+CON DD today.

As a lifestaff user I can confirm that lifestaff is working as they intended it to.

No aoe splash heal with auto attack, but heals must be aimed toward players instead.

Orb of protection heals, this can be used to splash on ground and heal self and others with the aoe talent

Not sure what gear you are using, or what your attributes are, but my healing is just fine and im a “paladin” build

Life staff was op as hell before, with the right built it wasn’t possible to kill someone with 10 ppl. Healers are still most important in wars and the team with more healers in outpost rush mostly wins. Healers are not meant to be stronger than tanks, they are meant to make the team stronger and win.

Unfortunately, these are not bugs. They implemented these changes to try and calm the war lag. I do believe they are working on ways to restore some of the features they took away while keeping lag reduced during wars.

I was experiencing that today - with Orb of Protection. I was no longer able to hit the ground underneath myself for heals

@Skiddle

You can if you get the bottom talent of orb where it does aoe to allies around

Its called Aegis, It doesnt give any huge AoE effect thats game breaking either

You mean big cooldowns? Like the 5k single-target heal that has 3.5 seconds cooldown?

Sorry but a lot of the things that they turned off…removed the ability for the life staff user to heal OTHERS… At the current moment all skills in the life staff tree are turned off except Beacon, Sacred Ground and Light’s Embrace. All other passives, all other mechanics, all other core healing engines turned off completely except revitalize.

Yeah they broke the ability further. Now you only get to splash it when it hits enemies.
Meanwhile LMB is supposed to splash when it hits enemies, now it doesn’t splash at all.
