I have been playing without seeing the actual logged text for so long, but the reason ACT doesn't parse criticals on wards is due to the way the ward is logged. Effects that heal (including the heal trigger on our single target ward expiring and possibly mythical passive ward heal) will say in the log file something about the target being critically healed for XXXX. When you hit someone with a ward, there is no special text in the log to denote that ward as critically hitting the target. All it says is your ward hits target, but not for how much until the ward absorbs a hit. Even then, there is no "critical absorption" in the logs--our wards just absorb without caring if they originally critted or not.

Nonetheless, wards can and will critical but unless the Sony dev team changes how wards are displayed in the log file no parser will reliably pick up critical wards.

I'm a mystic and I check the defiler forums as often as the mystic forums. The things we do share like some AA options and gear choices make it worth it.

This is true, we do have things in common, I was being mean when i said to betray to a real healer, I do know some very good Mystic healers. It was more that he was making senseless arguments based on his class not taking into account the differences there are.

I too regularly browse the defiler forums. Also because they are often more active than the mystic forums. I also have found very beneficial info here. That being said. I have dog spec and I think it is way more useful with the types of encounters in this expansion. I do miss fast cures a little..but not as much as I thought. I have a lot of alacrity, and on cure heavy fights I have tc or temp anyway. As far as wards critting. Wards crit based on your heal crit. There is no 15% max crit on wards. Like everyone else said. If you are testing it via ACT you aren't gonna pick it up. I've personally tested it. That being said im very leary to drop almost 16% crit for fast cures or coagulate. And at this point im keeping the doggy.

Whats your heal crit at in raids? When I still had heal crit line it was pushing 125% with pots and temp adorns.

If I was that high, Id for sure drop it. I hit about 93% or so with potions and adorns.

Granted Im not usually in MT group either.
