"Your spells and abilities have a chance to empower each unique gem color of an ally's socketed gems. This boon grants 4.5 to each empowered secondary stat for 15 sec. This effect will always target your bonded ally, if available."Comment by SchattensangAs a healer I really have to say, that I am fascinated by the idea behind the Fractured Gemstone Locket. With the changes to socketing we have easy access to 6 socketed gems all the time. So now the next question will be: Do they stack, or can you only give one stone to an ally at once? Because if you can supercharge an ally with 6-9 stacks of that buff, it just sounds hilarious, but impossible to manage. But having 6 stacks of it and only being able to use 5 (or even 4, depending on if you can give it to yourself) sounds annoying for dungeons.

Also yeah, not a fan of Waders of Unifying Flame, because with that item it will definitely be the healer's responsibility to watch out for the proc and figure out who has the buff to hug them. At least with the pollen set you don't have to find specific people, but even that sounds a bit like a pain. And running after the lightning strikes (depending on if you as the set wearer can even get them, the wording is weird) sounds painful as well.Comment by Olympus3129OmG that radiant damage buff for Herald of the Sun Retribution is going to SLAP if thats not a placeholder number.Comment by ChanchiOh look, more crafting gear that can't go on the auction house.

Making it a requirement to get rid of the bond seems like it'll just plunge the price right down as it's a requirement like every single dungeon, no? That seems kind of *!@#
