Balance Changes:* Grungni's Gift: This ability's heal value has been increased, and its Action Point cost has been reduced.* Master Rune of Adamant: The heal value of the ability has increased.* Rune of Burning: This ability now deals slightly less damage per tick, but ticks at a faster rate, resulting in an overall increase in damage. Additionally, its Action Point cost has been increased.* Rune of Fate: This ability will now heal for 150% of the damage dealt.* Rune of Fire: The damage of this ability has been increased.* Rune of Fortune: The ability will now heal for 150% of the damage dealt.* Rune of Immolation: The damage of this ability has been increased. Also, fixed an issue in which the Damage-over-time would unintentionally deal damage on the initial application.* Rune of Serenity: The heal value of the ability has increased.
We've identified several issues which were causing some specific Zealot and Runepriest abilities to be much less impactful than they should have been. Essentially, these abilities were simply "under budget" and did not have enough performance for their costs. We will be improving all of these abilities in order to bring them up to a level that we feel is more appropriate.
- Flash of Chaos & Grungni's Gift: Both of these "snap heal" abilities were underperforming, and have been adjusted in two different ways. We've reduced the action point costs of these abilities from 30 to 15, and increased their base healing value from roughly 200 to 270 (before modifiers such as Willpower, Healing Power, and Weapon DPS as mentioned in my prior post).
- Leaping Alteration & Rune of Serenity: Similarly, both of these abilities were notably underperforming, with their base healing values being much lower than we intended. As a result, we will be increasing their base overall healing from roughly 390 to 600. We hope that these changes make these abilities much more appealing to you, and that you'll find room in your toolbox for them!

The changes to Grungni's Gift and Rune of Serenity should help a lot with our AP issues. Will wait to see how the other changes affect our DPS.
Another reasonably big change in 1.3.5 is that weapon DPS will affect magical and healing damage:
