Do they count overheals? I haven't done any testing with it, but I was curious if it only counted the actual HP healed or if it counted the overheal amount as well.

I remember checking long ago that they count the "heal" from getting the bolster buff after each ress. So lowbies that die a lot should be high on healing. They may even count regen when out of combat.

I'm pretty sure they fixed that. I've definitely been in a scenario when sub level 8 on my marauder and left with 0 healing. I think they DO however need to exclude the healing done from Orc's Da Toughest bellow.

My original question was that I was ending up with like 5-6k healing over everyone else in the scenario because I was constantly casting heal spells. I wanted to know if that was massive overheal or if I was actually making a difference. Thanks all.

Scrolling Combat Text does not display overhealing (try this with a really big heal on a target near full health).

Therefore, I would IMAGINE that scenario heal-meters do not count overhealing.

It does not take into account over heal in the final numbers. If it did once people got group heals they would spam that all day and end up with huge numbers just to say I R tHe BeSt.

This does in fact still work as of 2 days ago. My chosen guildie got around 5k healing in Tor Anroc before the match started by just running up and getting teleported back each time getting the bolster buff.

Why shouldnt they count Da Toughest? It is useful to highlight how OP that skill is. :)

Seriously - 15-20k healing just on yourself during a scenario. And that was last night - long after it was "fixed." (And yes - I have BO envy on this stat, so I am biased).

On a more serious note - I am pretty sure something is really borked with the heal chart. I will have scenarios that I have 5-6k healing, and I dont have my group heal (haha) tactic slotted. Its probably from the bolster buff. That is all I can think of. The wierd thing is, there are some games where I have 0 healing, and I am still getting the bolster buff. Something is amiss.
