Strongest Healing Build In This Meta - a parting gift

Zheg

I still log in once in a while so I haven't left the game yet (... damn you delayed CU beta), and this isn't a goodbye thread. Since VE is no longer running competitively, there's no more need for trade secrets. I gift to the community the strongest group heal build for this meta, may you run amok with it and cause wrobel balancing headaches and Fengrush many rants on his stream. I prefer templar because that's been my go-to since forever, but believe it or not any class can run this build.

Head - Combat Physician/Light/Infused/Tri-Stat
Shoulder - Molag Kena/Medium/Impen/Magicka
Chest - Kag's Hope/Heavy/Impen/Tri-Stat
Gloves - Combat Physician/Light/(Well-Fitted/Divines)/Magicka
Waist - Combat Physician/Light/(Well-Fitted/Divines)/Magicka
Legs - Combat Physician/Light/Infused/Tri-Stat
Boots - Combat Physician/Light/(Well-Fitted/Divines)/Magicka

Neck - Willpower/Arcane/Spell Dmg
Ring - Willpower/Arcane/Spell Dmg
Ring - Willpower/Arcane/Mag Recov

Weapon 1 - Resto Staff - Kag's Hope/Precise (NOT powered)
Weapon 2 - 2H Sword or S&B - Kag's Hope/Precise (Impen on Shield)

CP - this should be basic and obvious for a healer, make sure you go 100 into bastion
Mundus - Atronach (Thief if you can manage your Magicka)
Race - Argonian (for next patch), Imperial, then Altmer/Breton
Stats - have at least 26k hp, rest goes to magicka
Potion - Spell Power/Spell Crit/Magicka potions

Bar 1 - Healing Ward -- Healing Springs -- Rapid Regen -- Harness Magicka -- Elusive Mist **Reviving Barrier**
Bar 2 - Honor the Dead -- Extended Ritual -- Channeled Focus -- Repentence -- Jesus Beam/Forward Momentum/Blazing Spears **Reviving Barrier**


Why is this the best healing build in pvp right now? Two reasons:

1. With Fasalla's and the cornucopia of heal debuffs, pure heals is no longer optimal in most fights. You still need them, but they don't go as far. Heals + Shields ... that's where it's at. Healing Ward > Breath/HtD in many cases. If you can have a 2nd healer focusing on burst heals while you run combat physician, that's optimal.
2. Behind door number 2, combat physician applies it's CD per person, not per effect. You put rapid regen on someone, they will get a 5.1k shield (if you commit to 100 in bastion) as soon as they start taking damage and get it again after 6 seconds. One person in this can keep the entire group in free shields (no crit hits, 5.1k is equal to a weak harness magicka) every 6 seconds. Every tick of your purify or healing springs that crits also gives them a shield. Since you can have both rapid regen and mutagen apply to someone, have other people in group re-morph to mutagen so nothing ever overwrites your rapid regen HoT. Whoever is lucky enough to be hit by your 19.5k barrier will also get the HoT from that for 30 seconds.

Enjoy, my healer is retired. I will run malubeth and the healing morph of jesus beam for my remaining days to generate as many hate tells as possible.

If you are putting your healers on fasallas, fail, but I'm not surprised considering this is coming from you.

2nd healer runs trans and focuses burst heals. You don't need 24 for this to be effective. You could replace willpower and kags and run 5 trans, but I find it necessary to have a heavy chest and at least 2 impen for your own survival.

You are right. I dont run 24 people to dedicate one set per 2 healers lololololol

I know you think you're a decent player, and I know you truly believe that, but you're not. You never were. You are only a heal bot in a 24 man zerg.

I ran this build when our group size averaged 16 or less. Though I could keep up 24 with this, if you were in group that would probably drop to only being able to keep up 23.

This set up was an absolute life-saver oh my god. If only more than one of us had farmed it lol. Oh well.

Also did I just see a "put your healers on Fasallas" for real?

Lets see how many VE members I just triggered.

Ty for sharing. We have other setups / strategies. But we always enjoy seeing what others theorycraft. And who knows? Maybe we'll have someone play this role.

IxSTALKERxI

Rage etc have been running a build since 1.6 that achieves a similar result but in a very different way. Was more for a 6-12 man group size though.

Sophieous

Interesting build, will try it once, at least the physician's set.

My build seems tankier though (Reactive/Transmutation/Malu-Engine-Bloodspawn), which is potentially better for my team and our setup cus it allows me to survive for longer (5 heavy, 2 light for resource management).

But I don't do zergs, I run 2 or 4 man groups usually or the classic 12, and it seems to be performing really well, which is not how u run from what I can tell.

But thank you for posting this

What's wrong about fasalla on healers? When I'm on my templar and run e.g. with 2 stam dks and a sorc, almost all half decent players target me first, so imo it makes sense for me to use fasalla.

He is talking about 16+ groups. Of course for small scale fasala is good for healers because as you said you will be the main target.

Nothing wrong with fasallas on support templar, at all. VE players aren't very experienced in smaller groups and have dedicated fasalla tanks because they have numbers to dedicate solely to that, while smaller groups often have builds that do a bit of everything, heals, tank and dps. Keep on rocking your Fasallas

Nailed it ^
You only see like 3 prox det ball groups these days. Hopefully the rest leave the game too but yea.. Not all of us like to play groups where we can dedicate a person for everyrole lololol

Then whatever size of groups you run are not optimal. Every single successful guild has roles for their players to play in. Sure those roles can change but generally it's not random and at least thought about.

The strongest heal-spec for medium scale battles, imho, is Combat Physician + Trinimac's valor ++ on a DK healer (no other class can max. their profit from trinimac's valor).

I already stated in February that Combat Physician & Trinimac's Valor perform by far too well on a DK but ZOS ain't interested.
https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/246471/healing-in-eso-too-easy-combat-physician-trinimacs-valor-dk-igneous-shield-magma-shell#latest

To be sincere, very fortunately for Cyrondil, there aren't many DK-healers who know this, how to make profit out of this sets and the ones who know, are still not enough (in numbers) to matter in pvp-balance (plus soo0 many people think a healer must be a Templar, bacause this class is soooo OP.. [total BS]..., many don't even understand the term: "bubble healer").
Nonetheless, this set-combination needs to be looked at, as trinimac's valor is -by far- proc'ing too often. If a PvP group stays close together, you pop 5k trinimac's-ae heal as good as every second.. (while spamming HoT, Bubble Healing ward and Igneous Shield) (oh, and no need to discuss, I won't even answer after this one^^).

As soon as race-change will come to the game, you might see more DK-healers in Cyro.

I'd be willing to bet that the reason we don't see more of it is because no wants to depend on the blessing of rngesus to give them what they want.
