In-game description of Convalescence is ambiguous

[Inzoum]

Let's look at the Gladiator skill Convalescence's description. The wording is too vague. It actually took some experimentation and comparison with French to understand how exactly the effect works.

English: Increases HP restored by spells or actions by 20%.

This tells us HP recovered is increased by 20% (30% with later trait), but doesn't tell us:
• Whose spells or actions it concerns
• Whose HP recovery is increased.

For all it's worth, the description could very well be understood in either of these ways:
• "Increases HP restored (to you) by spells or actions (cast on you) by 20%"
• "Increases HP restored (to your target) by spells or actions (cast by you) by 20%"

For a long time, I expected this to make my Cures restore 20% more HP while under its effect, and have tried using it to heal others with little results. I only later realised it worked the other way around and made it easier for others to cure me, sort of like a panic button.

The wording in French is a lot less ambiguous regarding whose HP's recovery it affects, but the wording makes no mentions of non-magic HP recovery skills (like Second Wind or Bloodbath):

French: Les effets de la magie curative sur vous sont 20% plus puissants.
Translates into: "Effects of healing magic used on you are improved by 20%"

This opens up another question, are skills also included in the elligible actions, or just healing magic?

For reference:
Japanese: 一定時間、自身が受ける回復魔法の効果を30％上昇させる。
効果時間：20秒

The Japanese text says "Increases effect of recovery magic received by you by 20/30% for a period of time", so the French text is correct, it is only healing magic, and the English description really needs to be corrected to fix that error.

This is a known issue, and it will be addressed in a future update.

Thank you for taking the time to respond!

I love the English localization in A Realm Reborn, you've all been doing a great job so far
