Editing Healing

{{Construction}}
'''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:
<math>\text{healing}_f = \text{healing}_i * \prod(1 - \text{healing}_{red} * b) * (1 + \text{healing}_{amp})</math><br/>
where <math>\text{healing}_f</math> is final healing, <math>\text{healing}_i</math> is initial healing, <math>\text{healing}_{red}</math> is healing reduction amount, <math>b</math> is 0.85 when {{ItemIcon|Healing Booster}} is owned and 1 otherwise, and <math>\text{healing}_{amp}</math> is healing amp.  

== Healing Amp ==

Healing Amp, is a [[Stats|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 does not affect [[Health Regen]], but does affect healing-over-time buffs, such as [[Healing Rite]]'s active effect.

This [[Stats|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.
