Cyro support class - which one ?

Thanks to this event, I've finally found the occasion to give cyro a try. I like sieging. I don't like not being able to heal and support my comrades in arms with my current character. So, I was wondering what the "best" support class would be for it.

Any opinions ?

    Warden or Templar for tanky heals. Also, cast Siege Shield and that Templar ability that removes negative effects, or Cleanse If Warden.

    Any of them can be fun just depends on you want to play as support.

    ^This.^

    Though you tend to see more Wardens and Templars in support roles for the passives ...

    I run a heavy armor NB and on my back bar I have a resto staff with Hardening enchantment, and run Spiked Bone Shield and Healing Ward to proc the Infernal Guardian bombs, as well as Vigor and Rapid Regen for straight heals. Plus I can swap in Grand Healing if need be.

    Point being, anybody can learn all these skills (and more) with any class. Plus, as a NB I can help heal with Sap Essence too, and use Dark Cloak for self heals on main bar.

    id say either wardens templars or sorc

    sorcs roots and negates
    templars cheap purge, strong heals and shards
    wardens great heals and roots

    each has there own unique ness and flavor those would be the best choices sup dk is outmatched by warden and sorc with roots and wardens has better heals and sustain

    and nightblades just don't offer than much as a sup role
    DC PC NA
    Magdk - main
    Stamcro - alt

    AD PS4 NA -retired (PC runs way better to play on console)
    magdk
    magblade
    stamplar
    magden
    magsorc

    Nightblades not good support in pvp? I would think killing is part of their support. The best healer/DPS hybrid.

    By that definition everyones a support.

    A support is through other things like rooting, guarding, purge and using sets like transmutation etc...
    PS4 EU DC

    Current CP : 756+

    I have every character level 50, both a magicka and stamina version.


    RIP my effort to get 5x v16 characters...

    Thanks for the replies guys and gals ! I'll keep them in mind.

    Still, a last question : other than argonian, any support race to recommend ? let's say, for a support warden.

    You can also support your team by learning and using siege weapons, deploying forward camps, etc.

    Yeah, just equip Durok's Bane and Fasalla's Guile sets and run around defiling the enemy! :D

    magicka warden is very effective at supporting and enabling DDs to do their jobs, and not falling behind the fast stamina bois , thanks to built in major expedition in their kits.

    any race can do that, though magicka races do it better for obvious reasons. Anyway, nothing stops you for using a stam nord sorc with a full set of redistributor, combined with earthgorge and Beckoning steel, that spams vigor, dark conversion and clannfear heal while blocking

    Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

    I was born with the wrong sign
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy
    I took the wrong road
    That led to the wrong tendencies
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
    On the wrong day of the wrong week
    Used the wrong method with the wrong technique
