Related traits

Salvation

• Invoking Harmony — Healing done to other allies is increased for a short duration after invoking a legend.
• Serene Rejuvenation — Increase healing to other allies. Legendary Centaur skills apply boons in an area.
• Generous Abundance — Heal allies around yourself when using a Legend skill. Heal allies around Ventari's Tablet when using a Legendary Centaur skill. Dragon Facet skills and Ventari's Will cannot activate this trait.

Notes

• For more information about Life Siphoning, refer to Life Steal.
• The damage done when allies attack scales with the renegade's power, but not with any outgoing damage modifiers, including weapon strength, vulnerability, and target armor.
• The healing done when allies attack scales with the renegade's healing power, but not with outgoing healing power.
• Kalla occasionally shouts "Lieutenant, take the field!" on use.
• Lasts for 22 seconds, if energy hasn't been depleted.

Bug:

Dismiss Lieutenant Soulcleave puts this skill on 1 second cooldown instead of the 3 seconds listed if it pulsed at least once.

Bug:

The tooltip has an incorrect heal scaling for PvE and WvW thus the value will be too low if the player has healing power.
