search button was broke so not sure if this was posted.

so yea i used the faction version of heal area and my spirits weren't healed at all.

spawning atts description says creatures you create/animate get 4% hp bonus so this includes both spirits and minions.
heal area plus copy of this says all adjacent creatures gets healed for x amount. so how come the spirits didnt get healed.

i have read no updates about heals not working on spirits, all i read was wards dont work on them anymore. i also know that direct heals/prots or whatever defensive spells dont work on them anymore.

also it seems that the enemies gets healed if they are close enough to me ( i know it says adjacent, but this is when they are farther away from me than my allies who arent getting healed) is this a glitch?

They never have. Since the Wednesday, April 26 update:

Attempting to use a healing skill or to cast a Hex or Enchantment spell on a Spirit now causes a warning message to display.

You're supposed to see a message. I'm guessing it doesn't show a message for you since you aren't targeting a Spirit. In any case, you aren't supposed to be able to do anything but damage them unless the spell specifically targets Spirits. I've heard wells still heal them though.

k, thanks for the reply. i really think they should include that in the description because it does say creatures.
