Template:Prophet Velen notes

• Prophet Velen increases the healing of and the damage dealt by your Hero Powers and spells, with only a few exceptions:
  • Prophet Velen has no effect on the healing restored by Power Word: Glory's enchantment, since the source of the Healing Event is the enchantment created by the spell, not the spell itself.
  • Prophet Velen has no effect on spells like Betrayal which cause characters to do damage, since the targeted minion is considered the source of the damage, not the spell.
  • In-hand effects like Cursed! that are spells are not affected by either player's Prophet Velen.
  • On-draw effects that are spells (such as Ancient Curse and Burrowing Mine) are not affected by either player's Prophet Velen.
  • However, on-discard effects like Fist of Jaraxxus do benefit from Prophet Velen's bonuses.
  • Prophet Velen boosts healing spells whether or not they are affected by Auchenai Soulpriest or Embrace the Shadow.
  • Prophet Velen boosts damaging Secrets (such as Eye for an Eye and Explosive Trap), since they are spells.
  • Prophet Velen boosts the damage dealt by spells that deal variable amounts of damage (such as Blade Flurry and Shield Slam).
  • Prophet Velen has no effect on healing or damaging effects that are not spells or Hero Powers (like Deathrattles, Battlecries, Fatigue, Cho'gall's effect, triggered effects and combat damage).
• Multiple instances of Prophet Velen stack.
• Being a multiplicative bonus, Prophet Velen is applied after additive bonuses like Spell Damage and Fallen Hero.
• Prophet Velen doubles the healing of and the damage dealt by your Hero Powers and eligible spells. More precisely:
  • Spells that deal a certain amount of damage randomly split among all characters with a given characteristic (Arcane Missiles, Spreading Madness, Avenging Wrath, Timepiece of Horror) have their total damage doubled by Prophet Velen: the spell will thus shoot an increased number of missiles, but each one will still deal 1 damage.
  • All other spells and Hero Powers that heal or deal damage to one or more characters have the healing or damage dealt to each target doubled. This includes single-target spells (for example, with Prophet Velen Holy Light will restore 12 Health), area of effect spells (for example, with Prophet Velen Swipe will do 8 damage to its target and 2 damage to all other enemies), spells that damage "multiple targets" (such as Cleave and Explosive Shot) or that do a base amount of damage repeated a variable number of times (like Bouncing Blade and Greater Arcane Missiles), and all Hero Powers that restore Health or deal damage (for example, with Prophet Velen Life Tap will deal 4 damage before drawing a card).
• Prophet Velen will double the damage of Lifesteal spells (like Penance) and hero powers, then double the healing restored from the Lifesteal effect, resulting in double damage and quadruple heal.
• For additional details, see Damage#Advanced rules and Healing#Advanced rules.
• Prophet Velen dynamically modifies the numbers printed on the text of eligible Hero Powers and spell cards in your hand accordingly.

Example: with a Prophet Velen in play, Lesser Heal will read "Restore *4* Health.".

Example: if you have Prophet Velen, Azure Drake and Auchenai Soulpriest in play, a Flash Heal in your hand will display the text "Restore *10* Health." but it will instead deal 12 damage to its target when cast, since Auchenai Soulpriest turned it into a damaging effect which then benefits from Azure Drake's Spell Damage bonus.
