Do four Numina's do anything for Willpower?


 

Posted

I'm not exactly sure what the fourth slot in Numina's does. What does "6% Enhance (Heal)" mean? Does that affect Regen? Or does that only affect powers that actively heal like say Dull Pain (self only) or Radiant Aura (self and others)?

I've got 3 Numina's each in Fast Healing, RttC, Health and PhysPerf, just wondering if I would get any benefit from adding a fourth.

Edit: According to Mids', adding a fourth Numina increases Regen. Is that correct?

No, it does nothing for Regen or MaxHP at all, it only buffs Heals. I don't see that happening in Mids myself either. Are you sure you're not just enhancing a +Reg power directly with the 4th IO?

The +heal only affects Heals. Anything that accepts Heal SOs, but isn't a heal (+Regen, +Max HP, etc) isn't affected. Also, Heals that have a Resist component (Such as the Toxic resist in Healing Flames) are unaffected by +heal set bonuses.

This is why Vigor didn't work with Regen and +MaxHP powers initially - they forgot to adjust them.

Basically the only REAL benefit is for a Pain Domination/Empathy character. (The only ones with enough powers to slot it to it's maximum benefit stack-wise.)
