Trivia[]
- The concept for the healing effect of the Sancti Magistar was designed by player (PS4)Sreza and the Design Council.
- Prior to Update 26.0 (2019-10-31)'s removal of Channeling and charged attacks, unchanneled charge attacks with the Sancti Magistar, regardless of mods or crits, used to always be capped off at 200 health per enemy hit. Channeling allowed you to heal beyond that cap.
Bugs[]
- Healing pulse occasionally does not take critical damage and combo counter into account.
