Any chance we can get Absorbs added to healing for Scenario score window?

But they're not healing, are they?

Well I guess no, not literary.
But It would help some healer and tank classes track how well some tactics and abillties actually are doin.

Can that not be done by going back through the combat log?

You can'r really go back and check the combat log of the players on your team.

Taken damage or redirected damage would be nice to show too, so dedicated tanks could top a column. But I guess we could return to this topic when all the contents are implemented and stable. So not in the alpha.

I would like to see a rework to absorbs anyway. Sometime in the future of course.
A "heal" that does not scale is bad enough. The fact that it gets worse the better the gear gets because it ignores most mitigation makes this a pretty niche type of spell

Well consistant absorbs works very well against healdebuffs as they have no effect on it. Problem is that there are only 2 classes that can keep up consistant absorbs on other people.

they don't get reduced by heal debuffs, I would not necessarily call that working well against them. Their effect is too low to do anything but slightly feather the damage

Working better then heals thats for sure. You ofc need to combine em with heals for it to be effective.
