    To be fair, having it be a single flat heal per affected action (i.e., regardless of total damage dealt) would also be a poor choice, since it would likely then slightly underperform relative to Holy Shelltron and Heart of Corundum in AoE situations.

    The best way to handle it really is just to return it to healing for a portion of damage dealt. In that way it can balance itself simultaneously for AoE and ST situations, instead of attempting to balance itself for ST and having absurdly high (ST_tuning_point_x_target_count) or increasingly low (ST_tuning_point_only) output.

    I can agree with that, healing isn't mitigation after all. Shadowbringer's Nascent Flash is the way. It's the only true path to having the medium I feel. Especially since you can time it with infuriate when it comes off cooldown or save that charge for when your health gets on the lower end, (there's also the inverse, saving NF for your infuriate charge if possible).

    Out of curiosity, do we know what the percentage was for the lifeleech on NF during Shadowbringers? If I had to take a wild crack at it, would 40-60% of damage dealt be reasonable? if we're to take my 9k from the 2 pages prior, that should land it to around 3.6k(40%)-5.4k(60%) per hit, non crits of course.
