I never had any problems with hate issues using benediction, until today as we were running, and the person got hit.

Yes it does pull hate. It doesn't pull more per point of healing done. (I personally think it pulls less hate per heal) However, It always heals for the maximum HP of the target.

EX: If the target has a maximum of 5000 HP and currently has 4000. Benediction would heal for 5000. Considering it only needed 1000 HP it is healing for 5 times what it needed. Pulling more hate because of sheer overhealing numbers.

Also, "too Holy-happy in Wanderer's Palace and have to Benediction the tank early =P" yes. Me too. Everytime lmao.
