Stygian Circle not healing in combat?

Hey fellow Khelds. Wanted to report what seems to be a disturbing new bug and see if anyone else was having the same issue.

I've always had a bind setup to drop form and use Stygian Circle. You're probably familiar with it. It goes as follows:

Quote:
SHIFT+TAB "powexec_toggleoff black dwarf$$powexec_name stygian circle$$goto_tray_alt 1$$bind_load_file_silent "C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\Character Binds\WS Files\human.txt""
That drops Dwarf, activates Stygian Circle, switches my powers tray back to the ones I use in human form, and finally loads my human form binds file. It's always worked just fine in the past. But all of a sudden STYGIAN CIRCLE ISN'T RETURNING ANY OF MY HPs!!!

At first I thought it might be a problem with the bind but then I noticed that both Essence Drain and Black Dwarf Drain were behaving in the exact same way. As long as I'm engaged in combat they'll animate properly and apply any other effects to a target (i.e. Damage) but won't heal me at all. Has anyone else been seeing this?

Tested in the Shadow Shard against some greys. Black Dwarf Drain is healing me and upon killing enemies, so is Stygian Circle.

Are you sure you're checking your combat logs? I know I've seen it when the green +HP number didn't show up on screen but I still gained health. It happens when there's a lot of numbers on the screen.

Haven't checked the logs; I'll do that next. Every time it's happened I've been up against Knives of Artemis so I'll try it with some different enemy groups and post again a little later.

Well after some testing everything seems to be working normally. Gonna have to go back and test this against Knives again to see if I was just imagining things.
