2handed heavy armor Templar healer? Viable?
Evladesh
Soul Shriven
I just started playing this game as an Argonian Templar. I love big 2handed weapons and I love healing, but I don't like staff weapons or light armor. I was hoping to play a paladin-like healer character, but it looks like the most efficient way to be a healer is with light armor and a resto staff. Even if I ran with full magicka boosting enchants, would I ever be a useful healer in heavy armor/2handed?

✭✭Useful for what?
Dungeons/Trials... probably not.
Solo play... surely
Heals (templar ones) scale off magicka. Your huge sword scales off stamina.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Heres how to get around it:
Only use heavy chest and shoulders for looks. The rest is light armor, bonus using daedric legs since they look like a lower robe.
Use an altmer resto/lightning staff. It looks like a spear, and meshes well with puncturing sweeps.
There you go, viable paladin.PS4 / NA

EvladeshSoul ShrivenThank you. Guess I'll start experimenting with resto staff and some light armor.
Hey, I can always wear a heavy armor costume over actual light armor, right?1 -

✭✭I am playing a heal tank templar but it is sword and shield not greatsword.
It uses crafted armor so I get to choose my looks.Edited by Narvuntien on March 27, 2017 5:58PM0 -

Yes, costumes have no effect on your equipped gear.

Theorycrafting, you could make a stam healer in medium armor. It's gonna be bad, but at least he will look as a paladin
You just need to unlock vigor and use DW swords.

I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
Used the wrong method with the wrong technique0 -

EvladeshSoul ShrivenI tried Lynx's staff + puncturing sweeps suggestion and I really like it. I can always wear a heavy armor costume if I want. Thanks guys!0
