Spells missing Level Sliders

Quite a lot of abilities lack the sliders required to see the effect of the spell at different levels, e.g.
Holy Shock
.
Is there a reason for this?

That's not intended, they should be displaying like
Light of Dawn
. I'll have a dev look into it.
If you find any more examples, sending them to would be great.

I have sent a list of quite a few that I found (not comprehensive).
Listing here for anyone who was interested in this thread:
Holy Shock
Tranquility
Divine Hymn
Penance
Power Word: Barrier
Healing Rain
Healing Stream Totem
Healing Tide Totem
(This one seems to be a bit weird anyway, ((0) / 2 + holy spell power * 0.91) the zero will never do anything)
I'm unsure if spells that don't use a fixed base heal/dmg should have a slider, probably not, but if they are here is an example of one that is broken.
Hammer of the Righteous

Hammer of the Righteous
Abilities like Hammer of the Righteous are the same at all levels, so a slider wouldn't really add anything. The slider is only for items/abilities that scale per level, so that people can see their effect/stats for their respective level, and not just at level 90.

Yeah, I thought that was probably the case, just the other ones then! :)

I've researched this issue a bit, here are my findings.
The following spells have no level scaling in the data, so they never scale by level in-game:
Holy Shock
Tranquility
Divine Hymn
Penance
Healing Rain
Healing Stream Totem
Healing Tide Totem
Sometimes the thing that scales is really a different spell that gets triggered..
Tranquility
may not scale, but it triggers
which does scale.
If there is a scaling effect, the amount is linked to the spell's effects (the things listed in the "Effect" box under spell details). For these spells, they're marked as scaling, but the effects don't say how much, so we can't say:
These spells technically scale, or at least they have all the required scaling data on the effects, but the tooltip doesn't actually have anything to scale. My guess is that the tooltip changed between patches, and the spell scaled before, but no longer does.
Power Word: Barrier
The tooltip just has a percentage as its only number.. checked tooltip in-game, doesn't appear to scale.
In-game, the holy damage reported is simply SP * 0.91, regardless of level.
Finally,
should probably have the level slider. However, the scaling params in the tooltip are irregular somehow. I tried to link the spell in-game on various characters and work out how the scaling amount works, but it was inconsistent. I'll keep looking and maybe figure something out on it, but since it's a single weird spell, it might not be solved.

Might be neat to have the option of sliders for all values a spell scales with, or simply a note, when relevant, that the spell doesn't scale. At that point, though, we might be talking about a separate "technical details" tab.
