alchemist.6851 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Is it just me or, the Shield Of Absorption doesn’t trigger Retaliation when using Radiance Healer’s Retribution ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDark.8632 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Healer's Retribution only works with **healing skills** (skill #6 in your bar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezrael.6859 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 No bug, you're just confused about what a healing skill is. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Healing_skill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mace skill 1 - third phase triggers Retaliation in this case.. is this a bug then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tested Mace, it does not trigger Healers Retribution. You seem confused by something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgs.6103 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 OP- Healing Skills mean skills that are slotted in your heal slot. That's it. Nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healer's Retribution should only proc when you press 6. **Everything else** that procs it is a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchemist.6851 Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 i was trying all means to spam more retaliation still, healing skills should be more lose defined.. number 6 is just too infrequent usage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fill in build here: http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/ and copy the quick link here. You really don't need 100% uptime on Retal, just when you hit things. Using your heal to gain retal isn't the best use of that skill either. Picking up Virtues traitline makes your F1 do Retal which all you need most of the time.

Yea im on Virtue and Radiance traits with DH.. GS works great but don’t feel the same with scepter and focus.. so i’m trying to find creative alternative that works with power build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannir.4132 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Yeah, scepter is more a sustained damage weapon when limited Retal requires a more bursty playstyle. Try sword with that focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchemist.6851 Posted November 17, 2018 Author Share Posted November 17, 2018 yeah sword could work for dps too but i was thinking it won’t bring as much to the table as a mace though... or how about hammer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannir.4132 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Hammer is a good option, though I personally dislike having 2 two-handed melee weapons. Not Mace though, it has terrible damage and is mostly a support option for Guardian. My recommendations would be sword for burst and scepter for sustained DPS(most raid bosses, fractals, etc.). With full Berserker/Valkyrie gear, a sword burst 2+3 with F1 will kill your standard mob before you're even done with sword 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
