How much health for vet content?

mimicks

Hey all, so I was wondering given the new changes, like with CP and what not, what would be a good minimum health for dps and healer characers for vet content such as trials (+HM), vDSA, vMA, and even vet HM dungeons to an extent. Wold it be necessary to invest points into health or use health enchants for needed increased suvivablity? Thanks!

When you complete everything , Undaunted (5-1-1) , you should hit 17k already . But , if you just starting , I highly recommend using a monster set that has 1 piece Health bonus like Skoria and Nerieneth . You can also use other 5 piece sets that has Health bonus on it . Twice Born , Sun and such . When Ebon and Warhorn are applied , you should have 20k Health . Can go higher if you are healer .

I've been shooting for 19K. It's easy if you use the drink to make it happen, because then you don't have to worry about your gear. On my magicka builds I've been using this:

Orzorga's Red Frothgar - 5K max health and 457 Magicka Recovery

I want to aim for at least 17k health on my dps toons (they're all magicka and I do love my wards) and then maybe 18-19k on my healers. I tend to wear all light on my healers though because x2 5piece sets and then I'm thinking moving away from the 5/1/1 setup on my dps to maybe 6/1 or all 7 light due to sustain.

However the issue I guess for me is maintaining a good sized resource pool (which is why Im kinda ehh towards foods such as Witchmother's and Orzorga's) and then regen and health pools.

Unfortunately I can't get on the game and try different things out since my laptop just died and I gotta build a new one

17k self-buffed is still the general standard. Adding a prismatic enchant or two isn't a bad way to go about it. Structured Entropy is nice if you can spare the slot for whatever reason.

17-20k is standard for non tanks. Tanks are typically 25-30k (right?)
