Hand of Nostrum

[XSummoner]

Is there something wrong with the Hand of Nostrum? I have level 3 of it, but I only ever see one beam at a time. And .. yes, I know to click it in order to use it.

Also, how often does Level 1 Witch Doctor Heal? And how do higher ranks work? Like level 3 says 100% faster or something, but it's not really 100% more though .. right?

I prefer putting points into Witch Doctor than HoN. faster healing or heal more targets your choice though.

I have no points in witch doctor what I do have is 2 pistols, one with witch doctor 2 and the other with witch doctor 1 as abilities.

Swap to those weapons, and instantly summon a lvl 3 witch doctor and be able to focus those 3 points on my main demon (warper) I am hunting for a another 1h weapon with witch doctor 2 on it, and maybe end game will roll the dice and augment it and hope to get another level out of it.

As for abilities... I have not used them yet but can see how it would be important if you get attacked hard, or in a group boss battle. (people should self heal tho and only use you as a secondary)

There were big debates about this in the beta as to whether it actually worked. Main trouble is that elementals don't have a health bar to check. I know some people tried a while back in group play and they reckoned it wasn't healing more than one person at once.

100% faster would effective double the healing (2 heals in the time would normally take to do one). I don't know if the healing ability of the WD scales with levels though?

Im playing with the witch doctor at the moment and I havent noticed any difference by adding to either of the skills......
