This simultaneously makes Bathe in Light even more powerful, and nerfs it, depending on whether or not you have Healing Nexus from Harmony. Note that Anorithl got removed from the escort pool because Bathe in Light is one of the most powerful talents in ToME, and there was never any reason to want an escort other than Ano, to the point where people just restarted if they didn't get an Ano escort in the higher difficulties.

For any situation in which you aren't using Healing Nexus, this makes Bathe in Light even stronger for both enemies and allies. Note Bathe in Light can crit, giving you even more increased healing, damage shield and healmod. It is very difficult to be killed while Bathe in Light is active and you've timed it with a regen or a damage shield (not hard to do). This is a nerf specifically for Healing Nexus, as that redirects healings from enemies to you, and was a very important strat in Madness builds.
