8.2 PTR Mistweaver Way of the Crane different values

Lets say Rising Sun Kick does 25000 damage with Way of the Crane on both Live and PTR.

On Live, the healing from the damage you do with Way of the Crane works like this:

Using Rising Sun Kick the healing is:
25000 + 150% of the damage = the healing from that ability, so in this case it would be 25000 + 37500 = 62500 <- this is the healing that would come out from using Rising Sun Kick on LIVE with Way of the Crane.

On PTR however…

Using the same damage, on PTR it’s different, it’s now: 150% of the damage = the healing from that ability. So that means, if the damage is 25000, the healing is 37500.

Live: 62500
PTR: 37500

While the tooltip say the same thing: “you heal up to 3 nearest allies for 150% of all damage done. Lasts 15 sec.” The calculations are different.

Here’s screenshots as of this writing from Live and PTR, same stats, same Raid Boss Dummy, it’s the same on any mob, outside world, inside Proving Grounds using Way of the Crane as an Essence aswell as PvP Talent.

Remove the space between the dots:

Live damage 22315 - Healing 56756
PTR damage 22954 - Healing 34431

I can’t see any posts about this, maybe someone else have tested this or know anything else.
If not, i suppose it’s a ninja nerf by blizzard, because from what i can remember, it had the same values on Live, on PTR for a while, and very recently aswell, before i started testing.

I knew I wasn’t imagining things.

On live 8.2 I can BARELY outheal one F-ing DD siting on my MW.
F this company and F these devs.

Patch notes and hotfixes say nothing about this change so maybe it could be just a bug, or they just stealth nerfed because of the new essence that gives crane in pve and they don’t want it to be too powerful?
Btw crane is useless now, healing has been almost halved and the mana cost is still the same, one RSK heals like a vivify it’s laughable

After further testing, it also seems healing no longer works with magic damage…

I knew I wasn’t going mad! I’m guessing with PTR went live (8.2) it carried over, as I’m hitting and healing way less with Melee wings.
