WoW PTR bug report: Holy Shock does zero damage and healing

[Spitfire]

According to player Raithis over at the World of Warcraft Forums, the Paladin's Holy Shock spell at the PTR is experiencing bugs to its damage and heal effects.

Holy Shock, at least when it's working properly, will provide its caster with the ability to hit its intended enemy with direct damage. If cast on an ally, Holy Shock heals.

The particular bug Raithis is reporting prevents Holy Shock from doing either, though the player reports that it can still proc spell cast effects. Blizzard blue poster Hortus picked up on the forum shortly after, and reports that the issue has been detected; it should be fixed with WoW's next PTR build.

We do note that it's going to be a long wait for some of the Paladin testers, given that Blizz's revisions to the class' 4-piece set was a boost in Holy Shock's healing ability. Very bad timing indeed. Drop by again in case we receive word of updates.
