Talk:Healing Touch

Weird scale
Anyone else find it weird it scales at 3 per level except for the difference between 7 and 8 healing prayers? &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Life Infusion (talk &bull; contribs) 18:52, 21 August 2006 (CDT).

Possibly a decent self heal for rangers?
Nearly instant cast, touch spell (Expritise Reduction), and only a 5 secound cool down. Could be good self heal. What do you guy think? Lionfire
 * Spells aren't reduced by expertise, and without divine favor it heals for less than orison. &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 16:38, 13 January 2007 (CST)
 * All touch skills are affected by expertise. --Fyren 17:12, 13 January 2007 (CST)
 * Yes but it's not a touch skill, it's a spell with touch range. :p Utaku Mu Dan
 * Try restful breeze, getting a 51 point heal (assuming 12 spec) is pretty bad &mdash; Skuld 17:15, 13 January 2007 (CST)
 * Yes, but to get the full effect you can't attack. However, immediatly after posting this, I realized that Restful Breeze would be a better choice. Even with 0 in healing prayers, it's a 100 point heal.

Seems Obsolete
It looks like it's blatantly inferior to Healing Whisper. Healing Whisper out ranges Healing Touch, recharges faster, fires almost as fast, and has a higher enough base heal at most levels to compensate for Divine Healing in a primary monk. I can only see this now being of use on a primary monk if you omit Healing Prayers but have very high Divine Favor, and you usually have better options.
 * They don't compare: Healing touch is a good self heal, whereas healing whisper can only be cast on other allies, not self. Utaku Mu Dan
