Patch Changes
June 28, 2022
  • Now also converts incoming healing from healing-over-time effects such as regeneration into barrier. This effect now only occurs while in combat. To account for healing-over-time effects now activating this trait, the percentage of incoming healing converted to barrier has been reduced from 15% to 10% in PvE and from 10% to 5% in PvP and WvW.
May 11, 2021
  • In addition to its previous effects, this trait now grants barrier for health gained while below full health at a 15% rate.
July 07, 2020
  • This new trait replaces Vampiric Rituals in the Blood Magic grandmaster slot.
  • It causes healing over your maximum health amount to be converted into barrier. Regeneration effects do not trigger this trait.
