I assisted, but I thought I would put this here, also. My healing times for level 1 scars on my limbs were at 2 seconds. This evening, that changed to 8 seconds. I didn't see any posts about it, so I don't know if it's unique to me or others are having problems. If anyone is, could you please post, also? All the other healing times increased, but I didn't have those memorized. Just noticed the limb one had dropped to 2, after my last train and tonight was the first time I saw it at 8. Thanks for any info.
Hi guys!
A while back I updated the backend logic for the CURE verb as well as healing spells. When I did that it seems like a case of Konacode hit and I didn't cap Empath spell circle ranks at the caster's level (Which it had previously done). Because of this Empaths who overtrained their Empath spell ranks have been experiencing a shorter roundtime than intended for some time now, and when I fixed it yesterday healing roundtimes went back to how they had always worked. This was a necessary change because continuing to allow it made overtraining in spells infringe upon the benefit from Mental Lore, Transformation.
Really sorry for the inconvenience.

The current healing roundtimes seem to differ from the old version by one second for major scars (maybe wounds also). On a pure guess, it may be because the (Total Empath Spell Ranks - Healing Spell Level) part of the formula is now using the effective level of the healing spell instead of the learned level (so level 18 for major organ scar repair instead of level 14 when ORGSCAR is first learned), and as a consequence Empaths will need 60 ranks of Transformation instead of 57 to remove all healing roundtimes.
I understand the need for the fix, Konacon. But this is a pretty significant change. A heads up about a bug fix that has the potential to have noticeable impact really should warrant an announcement/post. Not being difficult, and not upset, just a suggestion for future bug fixes when there is going to be a noticeable (albeit minimum at my level) impact. :)

Agreed. C'mon.
Also, since you're in there, can you please fix the typo I reported back in May?

Konacon is this an unintended consequence or was this by design? I'll boost my ranks to 60 if you are intending to keep this change, but I wanted to make sure this is a permanent fix before I start re-training transformation.
Thank you!

This should be fixed now. Let me know if you see any issues!
