Underwater useability[edit]

I'm pretty sure that the February 14, 2023 game update didn't introduce underwater availability, if I remember correctly I'm using this skill underwater for quite some time.

Furthermore, we have:

  • The french wiki removed the underwater tag in July 2018.
  • This reddit post from January 2017 claims that Ether Renewal is not usable underwater.
  • Another reddit post from August 2016 stating that Ether Renewal is not usable underwater.
  • The API log website, containing API changes since around early 2020, does not list any flag change regarding this skill.

Based on this statements the possible game updates are either:

  • February 22, 2017: The healing of this skill has been increased by 6% per pulse.
  • October 18, 2016: The casting time of this ability has been reduced from 3.5 seconds to 2.75 seconds.

The October 2016 sounds more reasonable (redesigning the animation, so probably making it also available for underwater) but the February 2017 fits the timeline above. --Tolkyria (talk) 16:40, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
