Healing

Healing is the act of recovering a unit's current health, which includes various methods such as lifesteal, health regen, and item effects.

Math

The formula for healing is: healingf=healingi(1healingredb)(1+healingamp)
where healingf is final healing, healingi is initial healing, healingred is healing reduction amount, b is (1 - healing reduction resistance), and healingamp is healing amp.

Healing Amp

Healing Amp, also known as Healing Effectiveness, is a stat which increases the amount of healing a hero does with their abilities and items. This affects both healing to themselves and to their allies. Healing Amp affects healing-over-time buffs, such as Healing Rite's active effect.

This stat is represented as a percentage. For example, a 25% gain would increase a heal of 100 to 125.

Healing Reduction

Health reduction is a negative effect which reduces the effectiveness of healing on the unit it is applied to.

Healing reduction is represented as a percentage and stacks multiplicatively. For example, two different sources of 40% healing reduction would result in a total reduction of 64% to incoming heals.

If a player is hit by the same source of healing reduction before its effect has worn off (e.g. two or more enemy players with Healbane), only the first source is applied.
