PvP without a self-heal

Can it be done?
It's mostly for what some might refer to as RP-reasons, but I'm working on a strike-from-shadows build that's supposed to be very do-or-die, meaning that if my enemy doesn't die it's because I died. I know it's obviously advisable to run with a heal but it just doesn't fit the berserker-style of my character.
Is it realistic in any way to run with a burst heal, or will I just grow grey hairs somewhat prematurely?

✭✭Some people in my PvP guild used to play with dw+bow without using vigor and only used potions to heal themselves and tried to avoid being hit as much as possible. But it will be much harder now, with less burst damage and the change to dodgeroll.
I could imagine it on a magicka nb now, but that probably doesn't fit to your berserker style aswell.Edited by lolo_01b16_ESO on September 24, 2015 11:02AM5 -

✭✭I have done that for a very long time on my nightblade, being stamina from start and proud of having the 2H skill line at rank 6 (the ONLY skill line I have not maxed on that char, other than undaunted. even all 6 crafts are at 50). I basically ran through all of 1.5 with DW/Bow setup and zero heals.
I did 1.6 with vigor, but that (ESO 1.6) one-shot-crap-fest does not deserve to be called "playing" anyways. I would guess that it is viable nowadays as well, as long as you keep away from 3+ groups.5 -

✭✭✭✭✭Both my bars run sword and board on a DK, so I have no reliable self heal. Considering DB is about as good as drinking horse *** I stand by that statement too. Eventually I'll get Vigor when I've ranked up enough though, because if I have a self heal available, I will take it. I'm not suicidal after all.
Probably a good idea to roll with Purge though.

✭✭✭✭Love the icon for meatbag..Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis0
