Are the heals in this game Smart-heals?

[aaron.7850]

As in.... if I cast a heal skill, will it prioritize those that have lower health?

 

What if I am in wvw in squad, will my heal ignore the players in dire need of healing just because they are not in my party?

[Etria.3642]

Your heals will prioritize your party, then your squad.

This is why, for instance, wvw squads are very carefully organized into groups, usually of 5. Each will have a source of boons, and a healer, so the dps can mow down the opposition.

 

I don't believe it will go to the lowest first. Not sure on that one as I don't play a support.

It would be much simpler to gather two or three other people and test it.

“Priority is:

 

1 Party/Subgroup

2 Squad

3 Allied players

4 Your kennel

5 Allied players’ kennels

6 All other allies”
