Crit nerf on Arun's Vitae? (Mystic)

I thought they only nerfed the recovery of 2 stacks? I only just realized, but it seems that I get 0% crit rate now when it used to be like around 70% before the patch?

    I feel as if it's back to motes only being used to cleanse..I loved how much it healed, but now picking up 2 stacks barely gets me above 50% hp if I'm low. Back to not relying on motes whatsoever as a reliable source of healing. I can't say whether or not if it has been critting, I just know the healing is pretty bad again, especially for 2 stacks.

    Mote was able to heal 15k per tick when it used to crit :( not sure if this was intentional or not since there doesn't seem to be any mention of it in the patch notes... self heal feels a little slow now without it.

    You shouldn't have been relying on motes to heal you regardless.

    So...how do you self heal as a Mystic during dire need?

    Thrall of life? Totem? The new pots? All of the above? What if all of those are on CD? I thought motes are the primary way for Mystics to self heal. o.o

    It is fine to rely on motes to heal yourself, the glyph + eating a mote (2 if it happens to have another one next to you ) can heal for a sh*t ton.
    Tho, its not ok to rely on your motes to heal OTHERS. It is a nice way to make cleansing easier or even have a way for teammates to save themselves if you're busy or dead, for dungeons like SS, SC etc.

    I didnt actually notice if it crits less, tho before the patch motes were healing for too much, also considering its on a 4 sec cooldown now instead of 7.

    Uh... cmon now, Mystics are pretty damn easy to selfheal.

    Apparently you hadn't used motes since they got buffed in the imperator patch..picking up 2 motes was enough to nearly fully heal you...So yes, I relied on them to heal me, especially when I didn't want to pop thrall of life at that exact moment or didn't have time to use another mote for the self heal glyph. But that no longer really applies because it heals for (70%) less on having a 2nd stack, which brings it back down on the list of priorities...

    I realize Mystic was overly buffed (healing and damage), but the nerfs to the motes and specifically the damage make me question what the point was for the buff in the first place. All it caused was me to spend money creating a DPS wep, only to spend more money to reroll/etch away the horribad damage rolls and sell it for less month later.
