Before this goes further: you do know about PvP actions, right? The ones you only get in PvP? Purify is one of those.

Yes it would not let me use it.
today in feast it worked, but the time I am talking about didn't. Who knows what happened then, it could been latency issues with stun/ sleep and it just appeared i couldn't do anything from a lag spike.
Speaking of, why is the latency issues so bad?
As a Bard I do pretty well in Feast, not so much in Shatter because of all the lag going on.
Fyi holmgang doesn't prevent you from casting. All it does is preventing you from moving or turning, which shouldn't affect a healer at all.
Well played, a bard is Destruction in PvP even outside the Burst.
K, with someone I met from posting here to talk to me in game, I been more careful with purify since we where both shocked you can target other people with it. After making a real effort to make sure we target ourselves (I will be making a macro and have 2 purify buttons since the game lag sometimes makes it hard to target yourself and hit purify quickly enough) we saw holmgang d was not a death trap. SE really needs more information out there like the ingame answers things to explain all the differences in pvp vs pve.
basically the problem with being a healer is you usually have other people targeted and the person I spoke in game said lots of healers think purify is bugged because it never works on them. So if you are trying to hit your panic button quickly as a healer, I hope you can see why healers would often have that mistaken view.
If I recall, having no one targeted will default Purify to yourself if used. So if you click targets like I do and need to clutch Purify out of an angry mob, just click a wall or a bad guy and you'll Purify yourself by default when you hit the button.
