Raise your hand if your dps burst appeared to heal a sorc

Ever got a sorc down to about 30%-40% and unleased your entire burst rotation hoping to burn them down, only to watch their life inch upwards during your burst? Without them using their invici-bubble? They are the only class I have seen that on. It feels like your burst dps is actually healing them. Fascinating.

A few things could be happening there:

 

1) They are playing Madness and have DoTs flying around. Those heal the Sorcerer.

 

2) They have Static Barrier on and have the Corrupted Barrier utility which adds a heal to it.

 

3) They used Resurgence and the HoT is still running;

 

4) Someone else is healing them and you can't see them.

Even a dps sorc has some pretty potent healing. It's no joke you may need to reset the fight sometimes lol

 

It's true, but work as intended. As dps sorc (for the most) doesn't run any accuracy, they have more or less same stats as healers (~crit/ala > power > *) and the same expertise heal increase, therefore they can heal decently spamming bubbles & flash heal (but can't sustain it & requires to be left alone)

 

@OP: dps is traditionally lower than hps for any given player, so if you're alone dpsing a healer, should you two be equally skilled, HPS will exceed DPS. If that's what you called "my damage heal healers", well that's normal too.
