Warden Healer

xGhost91x · October 2018

Hey all. So I've got my Templar PvP healer up and running and now I'm looking to level a Warden PvP healer. I know which sets I'm going to run, I'm just unsure about the skills. I won't be running vamp, so Mist Form is out. What would you guys recommend?

There are so many ways to do this effectively. I feel you need to refine your question.

P.S. This is a good place to start. I'm sure that everyone will have their opinion, but this build is a good platform to start considering how you want your healer to develop.

That's actually where I started researching this build XD

Some of the skills are the same as Templar: Healing Springs, Purge, Combat Prayer or Healing Ward ... Siege Shield is situational.

Unique to Warden are Enchanted Growth, Budding Seeds, and the Trees Ultimate.

Vamp is highly recommended if you’re doing any end game PvP. But, if you’re just pugging it out or Zerg surfing, you can get by with anything that provides major expedition + immovability.

A good measuring stick is getting 2.5k to 3.0k on each tick of your Healing Springs in Cyrodiil.

You can’t really go wrong with gear selections as long as it supports your Magicka sustain.

Wardens are better than Templars in providing group buffs. Farming Jorvuld’s jewelry in Scalecaller Peak (to increase buff duration) is a great way to customize a PvP Warden healer ... along with earning kudos from your friends.

Budding seed is an amazing spamable heal

I thought of that as well. Ultimately, I decided to go for Enchanted Growth for the burst heal (more magicka and stamina recovery for my group). I felt that the AoE major defile from Corrupting Pollen was too good to pass up.

Grasping vines is the strongest hot in the game and an outstanding escape mechanic, you don't need mist if teammates are around.

I use rapid regen with maelstrom staff too give mag sustain to everyone.

Corrupting pollen is essential, especially in bgs for point control. Plus the synergy helps teammates take care of them selves.

I can't stress how important shimmering shield is, amazing defense, incredible ult gen.

Healing springs for when it gets crazy and you've already got your hots rolling on everyone.

Vines is a great cheap burst healwhen solo and a great way to keep your passives going. Awesome skill.

Lotus gives you a heal when light or heavy attacking that is smart healing. That skill does a lot.

Netch, Ice fortress, flex.

For the flex i use a ton of stuff and it depends on your preference. Purge is a good choice.
