    Title: Elysian Illumination not using sun magic for heal uses life
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? A little
    Details: Elysian Illumination not using sun magic for heal uses life. This affects Death mages ability to use it as alternate heal as it only outputs a fraction. It should be based on sun and not affected by life skills
    Steps to Reproduce: using death mage with death gear cast spell, amount form heal is reduced based on neg life and negative life affecting skills.

    Death Attunement (from Death Ring and Lich Ring) seems to be lowering the healing effectiveness of the Sun magic. I also notice (on QA where I tested) a 2nd buff icon, in addition to the 1st. This seems odd also?

    There is alwasy two buffs. one for the dmg affect and one for the heal. I do see the same for rings. also the higher your death shield the less heals you get form any thing that seems tied to life making it almost impossible to get heals especially with other life negative buffs like chaotic feedback.

    @Xee The description of the buff effects has me confused, thinking there are 2 separate things happening here - not sure if that is intended, since if you 'dismiss' the main Elysian Illumination, the 2nd icon persists.

    I'm actually going to change this to 'dev review' instead of verified - since the Healing Modifier might be intended to affect any kind of healing effects, not just 'life' related healing.. (after thinking about this bug during an hour walk earlier)

    Also, I'm not sure if this is entirely Healing Modifier related..

    Death Attunement seems to be playing a part also. I tested with 2 rare death rings, and both Elysian Illumination (Sun) and Soothing Rain (Water) seem to do less healing.

    Avg Soothing Rain with 2 rare death rings: 26
    Avg Soothing Rain without 2 death rings: 35
