Before the 7.1.5 patch, the damage mitigated by abilities like Bone Shield would show up as effective healing. This doesn’t seem to be a WCL thing, but rather a blizzard combatlogging change. I couldn’t find any information about why this happened, so I was hoping I’d get some answers here
It’s no longer in the log. It is still an absorb internally, but they stopped logging it for some odd reason.
