Recently discovered I've had a wrong assumption for about the last 10
years lol, nice to see there's still things to learn even after so
long playing. 

I learned early on that bandaging yourself gets interrupted if you
take damage - now I'd always assumed that meant that if bandaging
something other than yourself, it'd interrupt if the recipient of the
bandage took damage. Of course, on things like hearthstone cast,
looting quest items and the like the interrupt is if the caster takes
damage, but for some reason I never thought of it that way with
bandaging - I just learned now that yes, it does work the same way,
and I can bandage someone/something taking damage just fine as long as
I don't take dmg myself. Doh!

This was learned after several weeks of playing an ironman warlock who
can't heal pets now (health funnel isn't there if you have no spec),
and didn't realise I could just bandage my voidwalker midfight...
suddenly named mobs got a whole lot easier when it finally dawned on
me ;-)
