About the pull request
#6847 introduced a cooldown to the healer drone's salve ability. Specifically, it was set to apply on an attempted activation of the ability, not just on a successful activation of it.
This has made the usage of the ability, and thus healer in general, feel more clunky. It's not an ability like warrior's lunge where the way the cooldown is applied has considerable balancing concerns, so this moves the cooldown to successful activations only.
Also removes the notification for the resin salve cooldown expiring. It's a 0.5 second cooldown, it doesn't need a notification.
Explain why it's good for the game
QoL. Makes the main ability of the healer caste feel less clunky and overall nicer to use.
Considering that the old version of this ability didn't even have a cooldown, I don't see this affecting balance in any meaningful way.
