Do you recommend being a vampire as a Breton templar healer?

I've read that people suggest being a vampire as a healer, is it something I need to be?

✭I play a vampire breton templar healer in PVP. There are so many aspects of being a vampire that is not necessary if you don't want to be one. The biggest incentive (as a templar healer) is elusive mist. As a magplar, we have a very big problem with mobility. NB's vanish. Sorcs streak. Any stamina class can run retreating maneuver...but we (and maybe magDK's) are SOL. There are only three options I know of...first, you can suck it up and fight to the death every time, because you can't retreat effectively. Second, you can run speed potions. Or you can run elusive mists as a vampire. If there is another option to get mobility on a magplar somebody let me know because I'd rather not be so hideous.Royal Poet's Dungeon Tanking Guide https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/416797/royal-poets-guide-to-traditional-tanking-in-veteran-dungeons#latest5

✭✭✭✭Need? Absolutely not.
I am though. If the dungeon has lots of fire I don't feel like dealing with, I'll simply feed! The undead and supernatural recovery passives are useful if you're in need of more regen, and mist form is life saving in PvP.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭As a healer, you'll have more bar space to fit repentance/restoring aura which will give the 10% Regen missing from vampire.
As doc said, there's other reasons to run vamp as a Templar. And ways to temp. remove vamp if you can't "stand the heat from the kitchen".Minno - DC - Forum-plar Extraordinaire

✭✭Do you need to be one? No. Should you be one? Yes!
The 10% increased regen is huge and stacks very well with other regen amplifiers like restoring aura, purge and barrier.
The weakness to flame damage doesn't matter at all, since you have so much spell resistance as a Breton Templar.
I personally only lower my vampire stage for the last boss in vHOF currently, but even there I think it's not needed.
For PvP it is very nice as well, since both active skills are very useful.EU/PC (GER) - Healermain since 2014 - 50305 Achievement Points - Youtube (PvE Healing Guides, Builds & Gameplay)0 -

✭✭✭✭✭This is not mandatory but would seriously help on the regen.
If you PVP the sneak passive is great as well.0
