Using wands kills the Aura

[Antheal]

At level 6, my aura is currently healing for 2 points, 3 with Empower Healing active.

Using my Eternal Wand of Spark of Light reduces the healing to 1 point, even with Empower Healing still on.

It's not a "switching weapons" issue either, it's using the Wand that causes the Aura to fail.

I equip the Wand, *then* turn on the Aura... 3 point of healing every time.

And with a single cast of the Wand, and the Aura now only ever restores 1 point.

Now my choices are to recast the Aura, or switch to a melee weapon... which restores the Aura to 3 points *after* I swing the weapon a single time.

You think that's bad enough?

One single cast from the Eternal Wand of Cure Minor Wounds stops the Aura working COMPLETELY for my Level 6 Radiant Servant.

Oh yes, using my Archivist's Necklace's Mnemonic charges also stops my Aura working until I recast the Aura.

Well, that's a new bug. Did you submit a bug report?

I noticed this in vod last night. I found that switching weapons twice resets it completly. This definatly needs to be fixed but until then keep 2 weaposn on your hot bar.


P.S. Bug report submitted after completion

There was some thread earlier this week saying that swapping weapons stopped empower and maximize from working.
Thus perhaps the issue is related to the empower healing feat and not just the aura.
Can anyone reproduce either thing?

I can say for certain its not the feats that broken. While my aura was bugged I was still getting normal numbers from all my healing spells with the feat on. It's just the aura.



Edit: Also, this happens with any wand not just eternal spark (or in my case remove curse) so again its gotta be the aura.

It goes for less all the time. My normal is 23 all jacked up with only permanents and it drops to 10 if i switch between ff boots and stride or anything for that matter.

However i noticed switching from my Minos to Haste Helm it drops to 1. And 0 on warforged.
