Hymn of the Saviour

I am requesting this song be made to stack with Vessel of Althuna, Avatar of Mercy and Mind of the Deep as well as have the healing focus increased to 6% and the death save to 12% (and also have the death save stack with the cleric line).

Now with PoT4 losing a bit of potency, it would be nice to get the other songs in line so that we can use more options depending on the situation.

As Hymn was before I noticed it did not stack, I hardly ever used it, and almost all of our other beneficial songs are just better to use in almost all situations. I can count on one hand how many times I would use Hymn as it is now (including all encounters on SoD). The song is fairly weak as is, even if it did stack. Making it stack and giving it a slight boost to heals would make this song more versatile, and allow bards to mem it on occasion. Also, with our new heal/rune song coming in Ikisith, the interaction could also help bards heal.

Even with the proposed changes, I may not use the song very often, but I would definitely use it way more than I do now. If the song could get even more of a boost than what I am suggesting, then that would be welcome, but my numbers seem to be fairly balanced given the difficulty of obtaining the song and comparing it with other relics.

Either way, something needs to be done about this song to make it usable by bards with more than 1 relic.

As parsed, the healing focus on hymn truly doesn't stack with any priest heal focus spell or item (nor does it appear to take effect even over a lower % heal focus), and that's a major hit to the usefulness of the spell.

In addition, it appears from the parser (and yes I know you can't trust the parser) but it appears that the deathsave also doesn't stack with deathsave buffs like Divine Benevolence. That's a *bit* harder to parse reliably (unless you want to put yourself in a chain deathloop for 200+ deaths) so I might ask devs to look into it, but it appears from the parser currently that they don't stack. That's a nail in the coffin which takes this song from bad to worthless.

It's clear the song needs help, completely outside of what happens to pot4. Fixing the stacking issues would be the quick and easy way to go about it.
 
It 100% does not stack with Mind of the Deep, Vessel of Althuna, or Avatar of Mercy. These have all been tested by multiple people.

It would be extremely hard to test the death saves.

The only reason I mentioned PoT4 was because beforehand, there was really no use to use this song with all of the other options. I don't think anyone ever made a suggestion due to having many other songs available.

As of right now, this song just doesn't have a spot on our spell gems.
 
When this song was first implemented (aka the first day it was live) it worked with all focii and daytime heals im not sure on mind of the deep or cleric spells just wana put that out there.

It also did not have the healing bonus on it
