It's damage mitigation, not migration.

Thanks for the great info / insights, @Tasear !

Seriously, change your colours on the webpage. Awful to read black on dark backgrounds. I gave up trying.

O.o it's white text...

Tasear · May 2019

Just in case, changed layout so now it's bright theme on black text. Also just looks nicer in general now.

There is some good change, gonna make more choice for end-game healing.
The DK is a bit behind, but he's often underrated, I've play it a lot before falling in love with Templar flashy skill and it was very solid.
But you need to build and gear him different from traditional healer to be efficient.

I've clean lot of content with it and I plan to make another build for him and try it again sine it was really fun.
DK go the best "oh sh*t" button from all healer : insane heal, no need to turn around just shoot mob/boss and distance can go to 2x28m (28m to shoot mob + 28m bounce to ally)

"Cinder Storm" really need a buff on the size, not the power heal.

For the fix on Templar, it's not a big deal, If I play with new or PU running around I can just slot healing ward in a flex spot so I don't have to chase them. But I was already looking for them since the 2sd heal of BoL is not that great anyway, so, not a big change, nothing to complain about.

EDIT :
Also I was already using Nightflame, this thing is amazing, proc every single time a heal tick.
Great with RR or Blood altar.
When I don't use it I just put 1p of chudan and 1 of skel so I get very solid resistance (33k spell resist, 26k physical resist).

Dk has all the right stuff just needs adjustments to make their skills more practical in pve gameplay.

@Tasear I like the article, however I think it would be helpful if you had a proof reader before making it live. There are many grammatical errors which could use fixing.

Otherwise, good content = )

DK is still in a pretty decent spot for PvP heals. Just tested it during this latest PTS cycle.

Most be definitely, Dk is fun maybe most enagining in PvP healing...they just need to make some skills not so PvP situational.

* Missed

Eye of Nahviintaas – Light – Healer
2 – Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
3 – Gain Minor Aegis at all times, reducing your damage taken from Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
4 – Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
5 – When an ally activates one of your synergies, you and the ally who activated the synergy get 12% cost reduction for non-Ultimate abilities plus Bash, Dodge Roll, Break Free, and Sprint for 3 seconds. This effect can occur every 6 seconds per target.

The perfect version didn't mention little extra information about this set, which will make world of difference now. It's actually very viable option in all forums of gameplay for healers. Mind you though warden and Templar got an edge since they have a synergy that can be activated by group.

They've already screwed breath of life as far as I'm concerned. So this change just completes the screwing. It's not like you could effectively heal people with just the secondary heal anyway.

I really don't understand why so many Templar healers put up with what they've done to the class though. It makes literally no sense what-so-ever to make Templars unable to heal targets behind them considering their ritual abilities require the Templar to center themselves in the group which places ranged dps BEHIND THE TEMPLAR. It's almost as if they don't even play their own game. These changes make even less sense when you consider other healers - like sorcerers for example - have no such restraints on their heals and can heal their targets when behind. So these stupid changes are not even consistent.

I don't think they do either to be honest.

Very nice post, looking at changing to heals from DPS this patch with a Warden and this has really nice content to read through, bravo!

Would be better to have a confirmation from ZoS for this. Can also be a typo error.
Cuz with 6sec look bad, but w/0 CD look pretty OP.

So I'm curious if @ZOS_GinaBruno or someone else confirm this about the Perfect version of this set.

Honestly it makes sense that she just forgot to add info to perfect verision. This information is new from last pts illeration too. This change makes set viable in all areas of content now.

In the recent event, I nervously took a DK healer that was below standard in various ways (no orbs, no warhorn, off race, lack of experience on my part playing DK) into normal Spindleclutch 1. I wound up sticking with the group and doing the day's DLC pledge (ICP) as well.

But that just shows one can do it; I would probably have healed more effectively in any other class.

As for emergency heals -- I generally hit Ward Ally first and then decide what additional burst healing seems needed or prudent.

Dk healing has skills and potential to be really fun, but skills really do need adjustments.

You don't need a healer in any 4-content.

MartiniDaniels · May 2019

Necromancer is pug-saver. Since many wipes began with one or two player being one-shot by mechanics in wrong moment, necro ulti cancels this immediately. I think groups of organized necromancers can rock without effort if not aiming for the score. I mean everyone backbars resurrection ult and just uses it wherever somebody dead.. i doubt this is any dps hit at all since time you spend resing is more loss of dps then lose of ulti.

Tasear · June 2019

Happy Console Day all!

Also got builds for Elsweyr updated just in time for you guys
