Yor'sahj's Law (of Deep Corruption)

Of all of the blobs of blood Yor’sahj the Unsleeping may call from Shu’ma, none are more confusing than the Shadowed Globule. Its unique buff (debuff to the raid), Deep Corruption, means that:
Receiving healing or absorption effects will trigger a detonation at 5 stacks.
So, which healing and absorption effects generate Deep Corruption? Apparently, this is a matter of law that requires some interpretation.

Summary
Abilities that generate Deep Corruption are:
  • Single heals
  • Heals-over-time (HoTs)
  • AoE heals
  • Aura AoE heals
  • Ground AoE heals.

Abilities that do not generate Deep Corruption are:
  • Non-heals
  • Non-healer abilities
  • Trinkets and the like
  • Summoned totems
  • Abilities with secondary effects for as far as the secondary effect(s) is/are concerned.

Non-heal rule
An ability without any healing or absorption effects does not generate Deep Corruption.
