I've seen several reports of this online and we wondered if it was down to the removal/reduction of DET on the new healer gear. However, if you've not changed any gear then something is definitely amiss. I know I'm getting less than I'd expect via embrace.

Can confirm there's something weird about Embrace.
At level 50, with item level 130, mid-600s MND, mid-200s DET and 82 Magical Damage, my non-critical (or critical-adjusted) Embraces were splashing for an average of 1000~ or so, on myself.
At level 56, with the same Magical Damage, samey DET and 27 MND more than before - my Embraces were only in the 950~ range on average, with similar methodology.
Now, at level 58, where I got my first weapon upgrade - I'm up to 84 Magical Damage, in the 720s for MND, as well as 311 DET; my Embraces are still only splashing for about 970~ on myself. -

Good rule of thumb: if your personal heals are getting stronger or at least staying the same, your fairy's Embrace should perform similarly since her attributes are scaled off of yours. -

Probably is the same as in warcraft, as you level the amount of points needed in each stat to maintain or grow the power increases per level. If you are not upgrading gear then yes i would expect that the healing would be going down as your level goes up. Just a thought to add to this topic.

AsteriaStarfall is saying the fairy might be working off a subjective system, where the amount of MND needed to boost the fairy's heal beyond the base increases with level. The base amount healed by the fairy will increase, but we won't notice it until we upgrade our gear.Quote:

Level 51, 620 MND ----> 340 base mnd = 550 heal, 280 additional MND = 450 heal.
Level 52, 640 MND ----> 380 base MND = 600 heal, 260 additional MND = 400 heal.
...etc. -

Interesting. Maybe this issue will resolve itself when we're geared at 60, then.
