[QUOTE="El Jefe, post: 3051986, member: 19990"] Eh, as we discussed in [I]The Antiques Roadshow[/I], that effectively prevents anyone from using healing on themselves. Somehow, that seems contrary to the intent of the power. Lest that seem like a game breaker, I should point out that you can only heal one character at a time, unless you also spend the points to make healing an area-effect power, or get super-fast healing and add a range mod to it (more points), or get fast healing and super speed of some sort (again, more points). And when you spend all those points, you have fewer to do other things with...like having decent offensive and defensive powers. I think one reason B&S is so effective is that he's a specialist who compliments the group that he's in very well. I don't think he'd be so strong in a solo adventure, or in a small group. Notice that he's been pretty much powerless to affect the boss villain. But in a group like that, there's always someone who needs healing... [/QUOTE]
