Return of Reckoning

Please revert the recent change that made the heal debuff only work with single target spells.
Runepriest dps spells are a joke as is, and that change is insult to injury.

Unless your name is Windblock, the game design frowns upon AoE-applied incoming heal debuffs. Runepriest wasn't the only class to have their ability to AoE incoming heal debuff removed.

Zealot was nerfed in same way long time ago...RP keeping his aoe healdebuff while zealot was nerfed was the real "insult to injury"..

It was nerfed almost a year ago if not more. Today's patch just a tooltip fix.

Sad part is, I wonder if hes been using it for the last whole year spamming AoE spells thinking it was doing anything.

Zealot can still kick a little ass, as it has somewhat of a burst.
And the debuff did work with Rune of Battle and Rune of Might up until recently - wonder no more, Footmonger.

Didn't NGE run a dps runi in their cities with some crazy high dmg?

So you were abusing an exploit for a year instead of reporting the bug?

Nice job?

Wouldn't call it an exploit tbh Foof, if the tool tip doesn't say it
I've only just hit 40 myself on my RP and i asked the question as i had "heard" that it only worked on single target, but couldn't find any clarification

It's entirely possible that people were "unaware" that the tactic was bugged (due to the tooltip issue) as you mention. This is not "abusing an exploit", as you point out, since you don't even know it's an exploit. Therefore one would not be "abusing it". In this case, you were "using" an exploit, unknowingly.

"Abusing an exploit" implies that the individual 1. Knows that correct functionality. 2. Realizes that they are using the ability in a exploitative way. 3. Instead of reaching out to the devs to fix the problem, continues to use the bug/exploit in their favor.

So theres a large degree of "intention" here when saying something is "abusing an exploit".

The last poster implied he's been using it for a year while knowing it was bugged, instead of informing the devs of the bug to get it fixed. That would imply abuse of exploit. That doesn't mean every RP player would have been abusing it by any means.
