Correct me if I am wrong, but shouldn’t Phantasm turn Fade into an ability that heals when you apply Biotech Maximizer? And if for some reason it doesn’t, shouldn’t the healing orb then at least apply to the Biotic Orb cool down? I truly believe this is a bug.
agreed… Is this intentional? Would love if this gets fixed 
I think this is intentional. Fade is not an ability that heals. Using Phantasm spawns an orb, yes, but you used an ability that at its default does not heal.
If you apply your reasoning then every damaging ability could become an ability that heals with just any amount of ability lifesteal.
To take it even further; if you use it with Soldier’s powers that spawns a biotic field when damaging with helix rocket, should that reduce the helix cooldown? What if you put on the power that shoots two helix rocket? That would spawn two biotic fields and could reduce your helix cooldown by up to 50%.
