Talk:Healing Seed

buff by making it affect target ally rather than other ally? Twiggie 16:11, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Life bond exploiting would happen then, RA would be unbalenced beyond belief. Barkingllama 01:50, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Its a PvE skill -Passerby
 * That would be Seed of Life. This, not. Backsword 09:53, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Why is it that it actually gives health rather than healing? Noctarch 23:00, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow, didn't notice that yet. Though idk whether bypassing Scourge Healing was intended. &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 23:02, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Gotta edit "Healing Hands as well. It is a bug or an anomaly there; it does not cause instant death while under mentioned secrets. Noctarch 23:09, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Seeing the Numbers
I have a hard time with this skill because it doesn't display the health gain from the monk's perspective the way other skills like Seed of Life do. So it's very hard to judge the skill's effectiveness on a group. The Ursan groups at DoA insist it be on the monk skillbar, but I wonder if there aren't more effective options, since I'm not seeing the actual health numbers. Pucktrapper 19:50, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

I know this reply is now years ahead of when you posted this but i agree with you, though it has been changed in an update today. HURRAH! --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.30.191.182 (talk).

Bug of healing seed with Healer's Boon??
I have observed that when I use healing seed combined with Healer's Boon, healing seed does not take the +50% more health of healer's boon, giving always the amount of healing showed in the description only

Healer's Boon Elite Enchantment Spell. For 10...46...55 seconds. Healing Prayers Spells cast 50% faster and heal for 50% more Health.

Healing Seed Enchantment Spell. For 10 seconds, whenever target other ally takes damage, that ally and all adjacent allies gain 3...25...30 Health.

Maybe Anet staff could check it. regards (Sinchan Pro 14:18, 11 August 2008 (UTC)).
 * That's exactly the point of the discussion on the top of this page. This spell doesn't heals, it gives health. 64.202.165.201 14:35, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Difference?
 * With Orison, it's you doing the healing. With seed, it's the seed doing the healing. HB only affects you. The mechanic is somewhat obscure though. --8765 23:55, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Might consider reading Health Gain vs. Heal 68.58.91.59 00:54, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Healer's Boon affects your Healing Prayers spells, not you. Your enchantments are spells and therefore heal for more (or in this case, should heal for more), though I haven't tested if Healing Seed really isn't affected by Healer's Boon or Deep Wound. <>Sparky, the Tainted 20:08, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Tested. They should change the name to "Health Gaining Seed." Totally rolls off the tongue. <>Sparky, the Tainted 21:12, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Its not actually in EOTN
I'm looking at Micah Fergson right now and theres no healing seed. 99.20.114.116 19:06, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I just bought it in Amnoon Oasis and now it appears as known... It seems you can't actually aquire it there unless you have it unlocked. 99.20.114.116 19:08, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

does it work?
idk, but i cant seem to see it working, never have, is it just me or does it not work -_- 124.170.117.143 00:31, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
