Sheath of Light and Sacred Shield to become friends in 3.1

Patch 3.1 will, uh, patch things up between the two, who have kissed and made up and promise to play nice with each other. This is a previously reported bug, as Dresorull "the Thread Locker" has noted. He also dispels nasty rumors that Sacred Shield was never intended to scale with Sheath of Light, saying that it was a bug from the very beginning and should be addressed in a future patch. He encourages players to test it out in a future build, when Sacred Shield and Sheath of Light make beautiful music together. Neither talent could be reached for comment.

I'm somewhat unsure of what exactly your case is?
Graham Mar 17th 2009 10:05PM
Except this is a huge buff.

*sniffle* That, was beautiful.

What about the protection talent that gives stamina to spell power? Does that mesh with the ability as well?
Zach Mar 17th 2009 10:48AM
Touched by the Light. It does. It was only Sheath of Light that wasn't working properly.

It was an initial bug that was then left in intentionally. With the recent nerf to SS, it's not being corrected for balance.

I hope you're being sarcastic...

and here I thought druids could get some good times since pally healers were getting nerfed like us but looks they are getting buffed again.

Sheath of Light is a ret talent.
Milo Mar 17th 2009 11:54AM
Yeah, I wish : P
Now healing as Ret is more viable than ever! Yay...

@Milo
This doesn't change the amount of spellpower Ret-Paladins have... It just the fixes the sacred shield buff.
jueejuar Mar 17th 2009 11:56AM
Can't care a bit... Just fix ret :X
Lemons Mar 17th 2009 3:23PM

Isa Mar 17th 2009 5:13PM
