You'll probably find that strong enough heals will not be a problem. Keep an eye on sustain though. Among craftible sets, Seducer or Magnus Gift can be helpful there.
If you choose to include a noncrafted set, I like Spell Power Cure a lot.
My healer is a Templar so I run Rattlecage (for permanent major sorcery) and Spell Power Cure along with two mismatched monster pieces and Apprentice for mundus. Not meta but happy with it. I fine tune the balance between sustain and spell damage with my jewelry traits.

Crit healing is very powerful, and if you get a high enough chance it turns your hots into burst heals. Works best with khajiit racial.
As for a second set, I'd recommend grinding spc from white gold tower. The dungeon is easy enough to get 5 pieces and then craft what you're missing. Also, instead of a monster set, I'd say use master resto front bar for sustain and maelstrom destro (lightning or ice).

do u mean Twice-Born Star set 2times meaning 4 mundus stones? does it work like that?DocFrost72 wrote: »Between the two sets, I think running twice born will be the best bang for your buck.

i guess if i go seducer as second set then i can skip The Atronach? or does The Atronach give more to sustain?

Yeah if you run seducer and have 3 gold cost reduct/regen jewelry, that should be enough. You could swap out atro for ritual!
If you run seducer, run regen rings and neck. If you run atronach, run seducer for cost reduct.

Stones i would probably recommend is spell damage and crit chance, that way it will atleast help your damage aswell.
Another option could be Torug’s pact with an infused lightning/ice staff with the crusher enchantment, it will reduce the target’s armour and increase the damage the group deals. Normally the tank should run the crusher enchant but you never know with PUGS.

The 5th piece bonus of seducers (10% mag cost reduction) is unaffected by jewel quality; white is fine for seducer jewellery almost all of the time. Maybe upgrade in your own time later for the marginal stat increases for 1st-4th piece bonuses but I wouldn't bother.

Healer´s habit is bind on equip, so it can be sold/bought on guild traders.
The only sets in DSA that are bind on pickup are the master weapons.
i plan 1craftable sins its easier to craft 5divines then to buy or farm so i was thinking, hes lvl 5 currently Khajiit
A)Twice-Born Star Set
B)Law of Julianos Set
C) both
i personally think that A is better sins 2 Mundus Stones and divines this could boost healing a lot maybe then more then spell damage with Juliano's
but if i chose 1of them i can use recommendation for second set, but i like easy and cheap set like Spriggan's/Spinner's blue 1k per piece max 2k, i know some sell it over priced cause no1 will buy blue with 20k-50k seen them this pricy, but yea i like to get it as easy as this pen sets
and if A then i have question about Mundus Stones, recommendations for the 2 witch ones would be the best two
i was thinking:
The Thief Mundus and The Shadow
or
The Ritual and The Thief
but if something else then what u recommend?

If you want to be decent healer in ESO, you can't be without it.
It's the difference set between a beginner healer and a healer who takes their role seriously.

I'm a dungeon and trial healer and my first question is what kind of content are you planning on running as a healer as that really drives your build and gearing decisions since PVP is different than PVE for what makes a good healer.
Julianos is a solid starter set and I think I paired it with warmaiden until I started getting good dungeon sets to use like Spellpower cure and pair it with worm/hollowfang/etc. SPC/Worm/Hollowfang are also useful for trials even after you get trial gear.
For Mundus I generally use either the Ritual or the Thief. For armor traits I generally use divines on smaller body pieces and infused on the larger body pieces - head, pants, and chest to get additional armor with magicka enchantments on all armor pieces. I normally use the arcane trait on jewelry and then 2 magicka recovery and one spell damage glyph on jewelry. I always have my head be a heavy piece (monster) and my shoulders a medium piece (monster) but don't worry about that until you start veteran dungeons.
For weapons, on my resto staff I use the powered trait and magicka drain enchantment, and on my back bar destro staff infused and crusher enchantment.

Combat Prayer as heal and buff works always Spell power Cure doesn't, it works only when u happen to over heal and for 5sec, reason i don't like it and reason why my DPS chars abandoned diamond's victory and doing better damage then before, it was over hyped set
Alchemical wrote: »I'm surprised people are trying to tell a level 5 to get Spell Power Cure over something like Winter's Respite, which is very cheap outside of the frost staff and gives a very reliable AoE heal (for 10 seconds every 10 seconds, so you can drop it again instantly) that can proc off things like Healing Springs as well as Wall of Elements, giving you some flexibility on your destro bar by essentially letting you toss a mini Healing Springs under your damage AoEs. I recently built an extremely gimmicky 'Infinite Magicka' heal warden w/ Winter's Respite and managed to clear Cauldron Hard Mode despite that fight being an EXTREMELY poor match-up for ground effect healing centric builds. The heal itself is relatively strong considering it's a mere set effect but it synergizes really well with a lot of skills and allows for some interesting interplay between sets (i.e. Using Winter's Revenge to proc Respite for the heal, then the frost damage can proc Nuntak to give you access to the only source of major brittle all in only one cast - if only Nuntak wasn't just god awful in general).
Healing is honestly more art than science, anyone who says you NEED a specific set is lying through their teeth, because healer has to be the single most flexible role when it comes to set choice, and it's very easy to flex entire sets and half your skills without sacrificing a lot of healing efficacy - which I find most meta sets have a lot of wasted overhealing for normal content anyway. It's mostly about the learning curve to managing your resources and know which attacks and mob packs you need to lay down pre-emptive heals for, and when to shrug your shoulders and let DPS die to their own failures. That was an important lesson for me to internalize in this game vs others because it never feels GOOD to let someone die, but if someone is constantly out of position and healing them would put the rest of the group in jeopardy, then hasta la vista bow mains.
Here's my best stab at this
Some things to remember that I have noticed from experience..
- You can't heal anyone if you're dead
- You are of no use to anyone if you can't manage your resources. And what I mean is, on this one run for example, this Argonian person was our healer and I noticed the heals seemed to slack off quickly and then I caught her light attacking with a resto staff. Yes. I'm not joking, this was on one of the Reach dungeons.. iron forge or whatever its called. Was not happy with her.
- As far as what gear to use, the thing is, healers fall victim to other people's outlandish expectations similar to Tanks. So expect that whatever you choose, someone else may not approve and you might get kicked. In fairness, realize that there are higher standard for healers that eventually you should become familiar with. However, my PvP pocket healer is always welcomed wherever I go because I also follow the rules set in this post.
- Be able to contribute to damage when buffs and purges aren't required. Yes, let's get some DPS lined up to help the group. Typically this is done using a Lightning Staff along with the uhhh funny green bobble from the undaunted line. Although that can also be used for healing, up to you but be able to do more than just sit there and LA and HA. Be robust not a burden.
- Be mobile. So the psijic skill tree as something called Race against time and I recommend you check that out. The idea is you want to be able to keep up with Team. Don't expect the Team to cover you, keep up with them.
- Use innovations with your heals. So anyone can sit there and spam resto staff heals but what you want is to distinguish your ability from a generic healer. In other words use things that provide the Team with shields (wards) and purges and the undaunted blood fountain is great as well because ppl can heal themselves which takes stress and resources off you.
As far as sets go, there are alot of different options. I have what I use but it would take too long to go over the reasons for why it works. As I said, healing builds are a lightning rod for scrutiny so that's why the value you bring must be so good they never question your build. Just my advice hope this helps. Thanks
