Hey everyone

Does improved leader of the pack work?
I had my group watch the last 2-nights and we never see any icon or anything come up for the 6% healing to the group when I critical hit?

Has anyone seen anything to tell you about the healing part for that buff?
We have the icon that said 5% crit. but we never see anything on the healing!

Absolutely works for me. I'll get yellow text in my combat window saying "Improved Leader of the Pack has healed you for XXX" shortly after a crit. It can only go off once every 6 seconds, so you may not see it after every crit.

Turn on the scrolling text and you will see green when you crit.

Your group doesn't get the heal, whoever gets the crit gets the heal. And you won't get an icon/buff, it hits you just like a direct heal. I did BWL last night in a group of 3 rogues and 1 DPS warrior and they loved it :)

And we should see it in the combat text of the chat window?

I thought the text on the ability was very clear when it says that it causes your groupmates to
"... heal themselves for (2/4/6)% of their total health when they critically hit with a melee or ranged attack."

And yes, it should show in your combat window, I get it in yellow text, I'm also seeing my heal pop in scrolling combat text.

I did Scholo last night with a rogue and a Hunter. They loved ImpLOTP! Have your party enable scrolling text to see when you get healed. If another party member gets a crit it will show that you healed them.

Oh and btw, my feral Damage has gone up ALOT! Mangle rocks! I was critting with Mangle for 800+. Not really sure if that is a huge deal, but it sure is better than I am used to.

Ya the bear can acctually dish out some pain now. I did Scholo too the other night as tank (5-man group) and I had 26% damage done afterwards.

And I was teamed with Naxx-geared people.. That's pretty hefty for ANY tank tbh. :)

On an average 5 man Strat or Scholo, my ImpLotP heals for 36,000 hp. That is great for a mana free passive ability!

I did not take ImpLotP but I am now considering it. Do you all think this is a talent well worth having? Right now I have 3 points in the Fear/Stun resist talent and although it has worked im not seeing a big payoff for the 3 point investment.

Imp LotP was dropped from a 6% to a 4% of the players max life. It was too much for a passive ability before. It's still quite nice though.

Imp. LotP is a pretty moderate talent. It's going to provide a stream of low level life gain that will kind of grease the wheels while soloing, saving you a little time here and there. In raids, if you get grouped with a bunch of melees (as you should) it will provide them with that sort of low-level life gain that will help cut down on the healing they need vs. bosses that do AE damage.

Until you're nearing 70 and 10k+ hp (if ever), I don't see being overwhelmed with Imp. LotP. That said, it's going to at least give you SOME tangible benefit a lot more than Primal Tenacity. I'm taking Imp. LotP right off, I don't know if I'm going to get PT at all.

Having had ILotP (the 6% version) since 2.0.1, I consider it a very nice talent. A bit too powerful imo, so I understand the nerf to 4%. It's a talent I'll be getting in any full feral build I'll spec, I think. When I had the 6% version, it kept my hp topped off when I grinded in cat form. When I tanked (in 40 mans -- I'm a raid tank) the battle reports showed that I healed myself (i.e. not counting the heals for the rest of the group) for 5-15% of all the damage I took when tanking (what percentage varied with the encounter). That was with 6% ILotP, but I still consider it well worth the talent points.

Im lvl 63 atm, and got buffed up and over 10k HP(PoF, Food + lock pet) - convinced it will do the trick healing if one tank at 70.

Sadly, funny and ironicly, yesterday I tanked in Slave Pens, and at the big shellfish boss(dont remember the name) the preist and pala couldnt heal me fully to remove the debuff(loosing 500-800 Hp /2 secs, I think), after several tries and wipes we put a rogue tanking with alot of dodge and low HP, and me healing - and we downed him lol

Didnt have any joy of it then but on the next/last boss I got some nice returns on the ILotP.
