Its garbage....
I've tried using it with my healer but I've found I'm better off with 5 kags 4 Magnus or 3 Magnus 1 Kena.

It never procs really and if you're a Templar there's far better ways to build.

If you are another class I'm sure it would help but with Rapid Regen, Purifying Ritual your HoT's are well in check and the radius of the Totem is tiny not to mention the Proc chance is too low.

Engine Guardian is my Monster Set of choice if I'm feeling that way out but Bogdan has been banished to my storage character.

Well yeah i thought about engine guardian, but i wanted to do something a bit different. Everybody is running engine guardian

Currently im using 3 seducer with 2 swords and 4 julianos with resostaff and willpower jelwery.

The moster set will lose me 2 set piece from julianos

I don't believe there is a helm for healers-- well, at least not a good one. I used to do the 2 piece EG, but wasn't really that much of a help when I get the stam regen thing. lol. I like the 1 piece kena more. But currently, I am running, 5 kag + 3 or 4 julianos + 3 willpower.

However, would be nice to have healer specific helms.

Why would anyone running as Healer use EG!? Dont give garbage advice folks, 1 Kena and thats it!

Pledges: 1 piece Kena, 2 Torugs swords, 5 Julianous
Trials: 1 piece Kena, 5 piece worm cult or Lich set and weapon and 1 armour seducer or magnus
Monster sets, in my view, are no use for a healer, Engine is pointless as it's only useful 33% of the time, you don't need health as a healer, stamina is rather pointless too, and if you're half decent with resource management then EG is a waste.
Bogroll the nightflame is too small and too ineffective.
You could use Nerienth set if you want to add some dps, I've used it on groups with less dps and it helps out a bit..
My ideal would be spell power cure or twilight remedy but haven't got a full set yet..

Spell Power Cure is amazing...

As many have stated, proc rate is low and small radius.

I use it on pledges just because I like it's visual and sound FXs.

It adds a little % of your total heals with stationary tanks.

This set was buffed last patch but they should buff it more.

You'll be better running 2 Magnus rather than Nightflame if you're gonna heal with MSA resto\destro.

Otherwise 1 kena and 2 torug's (shoulders+destro\resto), 5 Spell Power Cure and 3 Willpower does the job.

Because healing is mostly about resource recovery.

My old trial guild used to require it...

Totally unnecessary imo

lol my old trial guild used to require me to slot Remembrance and Nova, or Barrier ...over Warhorn. When the dps on the group is too low, or raidleader doesn't know a healers job, funny things happen

@NiclasFridholm it's actually not a garbage advice, it's a pretty decent set for pvp, and for pve it is viable. The better alternative is Molag Kena, but not everyone is lucky to have bought it or farm it yet.

So unless they choose not to wear any monster sets, Engine Guardian is the preferred choice.

Any set that gives heals on an RNG basis is literally leaving the lives of your group members to the toss of a coin.....

Its extremely poor design, any healer worth their salt will want control over the healing so will build to be able to keep people alive without it...

..>so if you're making a build where you don't need Bogdan, then whats the point?

I use spell power cure (need a better trait on shoes have reinforced atm) diff best set for healers. Mostly use it in trials and some 4 man dungeons depending on group. If good group I don't have to heal as often I use julianos cause I dps and basically off heal. For boss set I like valkyn cause if I'm healing it can be proceed from heavy restore staff which is what I'm doing and from shards I also use structure entropy on main bar to boost magic and health since it's a dot I apply it as well. And if I'm dpsing Skoria procs from sweeps. But it depends on play style. If yo wanna be straight up healer. Spc 5 pc 1 kena 2 torugs (1 armor piece and weapon) and you should be gtg

the crux with this set is:

since the procc chance is so effing low, you have to spam a lot of overheal to just procc it once. and this leads to the procc being overheal (useless) too.

@ZOS_GinaBruno we just lol @ this set.

i run 1neri, 1kena, 5spc, 3wp + msa resto+destro.
if there would be an undaunted set for healers, it had to be worth dropping the additional SD+HP kena and neri offers.

oh, and when i pug and see the healer wearing this set, i switch to my msa setup... you never know...

edit:

tested it in ICP and it procced total of three times during the full run.
just in case you dont know how useless this set is

Good summary!

Here's mine that I was going to copy paste to the thread anyways, but yea, the set us underwhelming. I would much rather have either stronger heals or better recovery than an rng set.

The totem is a black jagged shard that lands with a thunk. Unless people know what it is, they are more likely to run away from it. It is stationary and has a small radius, so it does not work with reactive movement like say... moving away from bogdans fire rain. I find this ironic. The only benifit over nearly any other set would be if your group is stationary and standing on top of each other. And if you are using enough heals to proc it at a reasonably reliable rate, you are likely already overhealing, so it wont proc anyways.
