Hey all,

Was just looking through some things and wondered about the Panacea +Health/+End. The description implies that it can create its effect on the powers target and was looking for some clarification. First I seem to remember it being a 20% chance, is this correct? Also in an AoE heal like Healing Aura, Radiant Aura and such would it:

1) Have a chance to create its effect on the caster of the AoE only?
2) Have a chance to create its effect on the Caster and others on an all-or none basis?
3) Have a chance to create its effect on the Caster and others checking separately for each individual?

Thanks in advance.

Caster only i'm pretty sure. I think most people slot it in health so it will just randomly go off at any point and look like they're spamming heal aura on themselves. I've never really had any want or reason to slot this particular IO because it's laughable in PvP and imo not worth the price in PvE, especially if for a character that already has an AoE heal.
