Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I am trying to find the best skills for Holter's Bodyguard.

@Clackers Reverse healing makes healing damage them, negate healing means they won't heal anything or take damage.

@Zealot Ah ok, so really Reverse Healing doesn't do anything unless the enemy is trying to heal itself?

@Clackers That can be said for both of the abilities, but yes you are right.

@Clackers said in Is Negate Healing the same as Reverse Healing?:

I ran into that for the first time in the survival dungeon yesterday. Gen Ingvar did Encouragement and the opposing team put -200% healing effect on him. He lasted all of one turn.

@Kaiju Yikes, there is so much being added to this game, I am getting confused.

These aren't new skills. Several other monsters have this trait. Gretchen, Goat Bile Brew, Alces Pet, Autumn Effect does this as well. There are a couple other monsters that use this skill.

Reverse Healing is superior, in that it also causes the enemy to damaged for the amount they are supposed to be healed for.

@Boro-Wing I still find it too confusing to think of all the permutations.

What if Gretchen was on the enemy team and reflected all attacks back to me....would reverse or negate healing mean she harms herself?

Depends on if she has used regenerate. If she has used regenerate she kills herself if the reflect all gets reflected back. I know cause I killed my whole team against a Timi one time
