this buff says "May Not Benefit from wards while under this effect" the way I read this is if I have this active, any mystic/defiler wards will not work on me? is that right?
Yes.. you will take a lot more incoming damage without the wards.. Our raids use it mostly when a HoT / regen healer is in the group.. Still usable with warders but harder on them to heal. As a mystic myself, my main group members use it but they usually tell me ahead of time so im for-warned on the extra damage spikes.
