All Paladins and Healers PLEASE Read!!! Awareness BUG

[Swordthane13]

I made a Topic in the Bug Report section of the forums you all should take a look at and read as all of you should know Awareness Nullify s the chances of sustaining critical damage for 25 Seconds.

After many hours of testing with multiple healers Awareness does not only stop critical damage but also prevents the paladins from getting critical heals for the 25 seconds awareness is up.
I personally tested it with a whitemage and a sch.
The Sch having higher crit chance then the White-mage.

The SCH Could not crit me for 25 seconds at all but could crit me with-in 25 seconds multiple times when Awareness was not up.

The WhiteMage has a Spell that can proc to grantee Crit with cure III With awareness up it does not crit the paladin what so ever.
Again please test this for your self and make a post on the In Game bug sections of the forums.

Reason why I have Awareness off my bar already =3. Sides it is not worth it to even use it in the first place since Boss Skills don't critical, only auto attack swings.

[Elurra]

That's pretty bad. Thanks for the info and doing the testing.

[Jeykama]

When the tank is pulling 5-6 mobs, I'd rather the tank not get crit than my heals not crit, so eh.

[Vincible]

Wow, that's great info. Thank you for the knowledge share. <3

[Zavi]

read your post and testet it
thanks alot for the info

for a whm it may be not the real big issue but for a sch its pretty bad
so again thanks alot

Awareness is still a good buff.
Aoe pulls / Big boss attacks.

I rather the tank doesn't get crit hit by those than not getting a crit from my side which I can't rely on anyway.

Pulling 20 mobs banging me with 5-6 of them critting every 2-3 seconds, doesn't really sit well with me. Everytime those caps lock size number shows up, I just need to use awareness.

Also, most of the time, it is not a crit heal that saves me. But instead it is either a Benediction/Lustrate or Hallowed Ground.

So yea, it might be a bug but I will keep using it.

[Kal-El]

In the times that I use awareness the SCH is ready to Lustrate anyway.

But good info. Someone mentioned this before but no hard testing.

Definitely needs a fix.
