Death Warrant Forums

I'm not sure if this is by design but I recently discovered that splash damage healing weapons don't self heal while using the globe. I tried to heal myself with healing rockets and mines but my health didn't increase until I deactivated my globe.

It's always been like that. Dunno if changing this behavior would be worth the time, looks like it's some sort of order of operations whereby god mode cancels self-damage before the healing calculation figures out how much healing to award based on the damage.

I figured that. It's new to me since I just went from WM to AM and as a low level I sometimes rely on splash damage healing. It wasn't too effective while globing. :faroah:

I know I'm bumping an old thread but I hope this one can be considered for looking into.

Since my original post my AM is up to mid 140 level so I'm a lot stronger. My case in point is a game from earlier today. It was on Cheapshot's Bloodbath Cavern where I carried the game through most of the later waves though with many close calls! E.g. down to 10 adren on wave 13 and such. :O

The hardest was wave 14 where I was the only one left and was getting poisoned by the sliths. The only way I could heal myself was to "hide" (good luck on that map, hehe) and deactivate my globe to use healing mines. At best I'd get 20 hp before the monsters were onto me again. It would've been nice to heal myself without turning my globe off since I had enough adren to keep the globe going. With my low health and DR of about 70 it was risky turning the globe off! :D

Sounds like an easy button to me.

WM can use Vamp while globing, I don't see why Medic could not heal themself while globing too. Having to turn the globe off for healing is not fair for medic in my opinion, so if their is a way to make it possible I tink i worth the try.

Vamp goes by the damage of the monster while healing goes by the damage caused to yourself and since you are globed, you are not causing damage to yourself so the code can't convert it into health instead of damage... No damage.

I believe we were talking about an AM here, using healing rox. Medics don't use a globe very often, usually only very high level ones, so I doubt it makes much if any difference to a medic.

My point is that it seems too easy to heal up OR vamp while globing. If you can't get hurt it doesn't sound too far fetched to me that you wouldn't be able to heal yourself either. But that's just my opinion.
