Healing steam not being counted on meters?

[evilH]

Was in BWD last night and I went resto for a fight, soon as the fight started I noticed I was only getting healing stream ticks and healing stream wasnt being counted on the meters. Is this normal? I haven't healed in a bit so I cannot remember if healing stream shows healing raid wide on screen or if its a passive tick and doesnt show it is hitting everyone like HR does when dropped? Also, my healing for some reason was messed up last night, only showed me at 6200 which I cannot understand, if someone can look at my toon sheet I would appreciate it

skada shows it, as separate data, and loging the combat let it aswell show up at the parse

Healing stream totem is only party-wide. I suggest you be in the group with melee/tanks, since its likely they will be taking the most damage. All other totems are raid-wide.

And yes, if you mean Recount when you say meters, Healing Stream isn't integrated in your own healing. Not sure about other addons though

Should it be reading healing stream anywhere? Also, does healing stream still show ticks on party members when active during a raid or no?

you can turn on an option called merge pets with owners in recount also make sure you are recording pet data

Doesn't work. If you go into the healing breakdown, the total equals the sum of all of your healing spells, without HST being listed anywhere.

My HST shows up on recount.

That'd be because Healing Stream Totem is a pet, and pets aren't included in the healing breakdown that comes up when you click it. If you looked at your healing with pets merged and without pets merged you'd notice (if HST did any healing) that your total healing is lower when pets aren't merged, and that there is a bar for your Healing Stream Totem there which makes up the difference.

Actually Recount only counts the last "pet" you had out. It does not count different instances of HST, which is especially bad because MTT replaces it. If you want to test it, drop HST, then replace it with Mana Tide like 30 seconds before the end of the fight. When you go to unmerge pets, HST won't be there. This also affects the Damage portion for Enhance and Elemental. If they put down Fire Ele, it gets rid of previous searing totem damage, and if you put another searing totem down, it erases the previous Fire Ele damage.

Recount only shows the last pet you had up in combat under the little pet thingamajigger under the top 3 when you hover over it, yes. However, it does count the total overall healing done by it. To prove my point, here's a SS of my recount for last night's H Magmaw healing, and the WoL.

The reason there's an overall healing difference between recount & the WoL is because Nef sits around and yells at you for a bit on heroic, and that keeps you in combat so I healed the raid up a bit.

The reason there's nobody else on recount is because everyone disappears from the meter (for me anyways) after you relog.

I can post the healing breakdown from recount so you can compare it to WoL if you're not convinced.

I'm almost certain that you're wrong about Searing/Fire Elem too, but I don't have a recount to compare to WoL to prove that to you at the moment.

Just use World of Logs.

I'm using the most up-to-date version of Recount on Curse, and when I un-merged pets, my HST didn't even show up. This has happened multiple times since Cataclysm, so I'm not sure if I have another addon interfering or what, but I'll look into it.

SKada shows healing stream totem - it does a RIDICULOUS amount of healing. I reckon it's probably one of the most mana efficient heals in the game

A thousand times this.

It's not quite as good as Lightwell for pure efficiency (since it does a ton of overhealing), but it's obviously amazing. Just don't forget to pop it back down after MTT.

I don't know about raiding, but at least in 5-mans, it is by far the best totem to use. With average blue gear, it ticks for ~1500 every two seconds. Even if you don't have any mp5 buff in your party (another shaman with MST or a paladin with BoM), it should be your preferred totem.

Granted that self-ticking isn't the right figure to look at since everyone else is getting 15% less healing (Spark of Life).

Still, it's a very great totem. I've been talenting into it for PvP as well ever since the Purification buff.

Use the glyph! A glyphed HST is so so so nice, in 5s or 10s. In 25s usually this stuff is easily covered, but in smaller groups the healing AND resistance is a great package. Reminds me of the classic talent trees.

Actually the Nature Resist from HST's glyph (which is also the same as Resistance Totem) is only covered by Hunters, which is a huge DPS loss for them, or other Shamans. If there isn't another Shammy providing the buff within 40 yards of you, you need to have it down for a great number of fights, because it really helps.
