The new change coming to Lights Embrace has completely killed the ability. Devine Embrace was an alternate option to LE providing a bit more single target heal/burst then LE, but the down side is there is a 1 second cast time. With the new patch LE is the exact same ability as DE with less healing potential. I understand the nerf to LE dropping 15% healing on the ability, but take off the cast time! That way you have the option to use DE for stronger heals and LE for more spotty quick mobile heals. After the patch there is absolutely no reason to use LE anymore.

Light’s embrace gives stamina which can be HUGE in both pve and pvp.
The 1 second cast time was added (I’m pretty sure) to stop healers from circumventing the new 1 second stamina lock and regenerating stamina with lights embrace. This would have given them a huge advantage while kiting.
They should just add a 1 second delay on the stamina regen from lights embrace instead.

Oh stamina regen is nerf for 1 sec ???
Omg …" kidies cant roll over the map for ever …they need skill to…play " ohhh w8 they dont have skill just for crying!
Focus is a dead attribute on any weapon or armor piece, unless you exclusively plan your whole existence on running in circles healing people so they can have fun.
Read above. All of our gear is trash because it doesn’t contribute to actual damage or defensive potential.
Now the gear doesn’t add to survivability because there’s twenty ways to keep a healer in a losing fight with dodge roll nerfs and self targeted healing nerfs.

in pvp there are 2 times when you will get a LE off with a melee on your heals. they are when you land a riposte or just used fletch and by the time the heal goes off they will already be hitting you. agreed the buff bonus nerf isn’t that bad but DE and LE should both be instant casts for arenas. since we are forced into light we need mobility and to stay at range. adding cast times is going to be the end of heals in small scale pvp.

genuine question are you retarded? have you ever played healer other than testing out the skills on the PTR? if ud actually played healer u would know even the party UI is shit for healers if your team mate gets damaged it would update on the UI half a second later now lets say your party members were bursted by 3 people you would get that information half a second later and would have to wait an extra 1 second for the heal to actually cast on the team mate, in wars he would be dead

easiest way to verify this for non healers is to heal with divine embrace and see how long it takes to update the hp bars, it is far more noticeable when it bounces from one to another also.

Yep. These changes will make many players quit. Not just the LE cast time which is silly ( Devs should add a 2-3 second CD not make it a cast time) The stamina changes will kill off the game for many players.
The devs have been taking feedback from players who don’t know how to use roots/stuns/slows to secure kills and dumbed down the game further by removing the ability to dodge more often and adding a cast time is just another way to simplify killing already 3 shotable light builds for people who just want to spam left attacks to secure kills or hold a button down for a skill-less ability (Flamethrower).
This game will be dead within 6 months with the current state of changes. 1000%

I agree, cast time is completely unnecessary and makes LE useless. Single target healing is already clunky enough as it is with DE cast time and add on the fact that AGS still hasn’t fixed the terrible desync between actual player health and the health bars. I play PvP at the most competitive level in the game and nobody is asking for this change, keep it up and you lose your actual player base.

This change will push a lot of healers to drop targeted heals entirely if not stop healing altogether. Throwing out a few AoE and dodging around until you can throw out another AoE is not an enjoyable experience at all.

No healers would be amazing too!
I look forward to a chance at playing PvP
Agree it’s in the worst possible place with this change. With so much burst damage in the game this was the burst heal counter. Nerf 15% ok but the cast time needs to go

In this case why just increase the CD of LE instant the 1 sec cast?
Just asking.
And Yes reducing the casting time of DE to 0,5 seconde would give that skill to be played because the only players who play DE are sadic to him/herself.
Can you do me a solid and go tell that to all PvPers crying for nerf in every single weapon… especially those that cry they can’t kill a healer on 1v1
That would be awesome… thanks

Are you seriously not letting people voice their opinions so we can keep people in this game?
Literally a whole class is coming on these forums because this will ruin fun for many healers, and if no healers stay then more will quit. Good luck doing dungeons for umbrals and no sacreds for you to stand in.
Let people voice their opinions without mocking them please.
