Healing Efficiency Lab

Healing Efficiency Lab — v1.9.2

This is the largest public update since the original v1.0 release.
v1.9.2 — Exact talent paths and smoother setup controls
Talent recommendations now validate the complete Blizzard talent tree after every proposed change: required parents, alternate parent routes, mutually exclusive choices and row-gate point requirements.
The optimiser can no longer silently assume or buy a prerequisite that is not listed in its recommendation.
Guided talent search now checks coordinated routes with up to four simultaneous modelled changes, allowing legal reroutes that a one-talent-at-a-time search could not reach.
Fixed cases where a recommendation could strand a selected unmodelled talent, including Restoration Druid Grove Guardians routes.
Restoration Shaman Earthweaver recommendations now require all listed route changes to be legal; they cannot suggest an incomplete Water Totem Mastery swap.
Already-selected General/Tank/AoE and Low/High Pressure controls no longer schedule a redundant calculation.
Crusader's Might is included in Holy Paladin's supported talent search whenever it is exposed by the live tree.

v1.9.1 — Live-talent correctness and calculation pacing
Fixed manual full-respec talent comparisons so valid choices are not incorrectly greyed out by unrelated unmodelled points.
Fixed Holy Priest live-talent mirroring for Lightburst and Holy Nova.
Improved the talent comparison wording and legality checks.
Removed artificial frame waits from rotation and talent searches while retaining bounded coroutine work.
Documented and tested Restoration Druid Wild Growth's declining healing pattern across its duration.

v1.9.0 — Talent optimiser and performance audit
Rebuilt talent recommendations around current live-tree state, legal point budgets, explicit exclusions and fair current-vs-candidate cast policies.
Added Exhaustive/Guided search labels, useful-output and mana-sustain tie-breaking, and clearer Apply/current-talent behaviour.
Moved expensive analysis and talent work onto bounded background slices, with progressive UI updates.
Improved planner clarity, animations, tooltip wording, gear comparison consistency and privacy-safe player-facing text.

v1.8.x — Presets, snapshots and reliable current talents
Added per-specialisation presets, snapshots and Current-vs-Saved comparisons with independent active contexts.
Improved talent-result clarity, removed misleading rounded gains and expanded Healer Ranking information.
Fixed stale/hidden talent-plan state so Use current talents accurately reflects the live build.

v1.0–v1.7 — Audit, usability and healer planning improvements
Added race comparisons, clearer Gear Advice, improved stat recommendations and snapshot management.
Improved cast-plan display, duplicate handling, Haste breakpoint guidance, talent-result chips and accessibility/readability.
Strengthened Restoration Shaman High Pressure context, talent budgeting, Prayer of Mending handling and supported permanent race options.
Major expansion since v1.0
Core calculator, UI and live data
Rebuilt the original Holy Priest prototype into a universal live-stat and live-tooltip planning calculator.
Added General, Tank and AoE Healing roles plus Low Pressure and High Pressure demand profiles.
Added a five-minute healing test, automatic cast-order optimisation, editable cast orders, gear advice, comparison tools, presets, snapshots, exports, minimap access and a complete Learn page.
Improved frame-time behaviour with cached live stat reads, lazy UI pages, reusable simulation events, cancellable refreshes and a visible calculation indicator.
