Do have have access to all the items in game? In general all the best specs in pvp use one of the set item weapons. The trick is to use one set with an effect that only needs to be on one bar and on the other bar break that 5 piece with the weapon so you get both effects.

In your case I recommend Transmutation (if you’re willing to change and use hots) because it’s easy to break, and the restoration staff from BRP (I think that’s the one) where ward gives major vitality because it looks like you like shields. Fortified brass is good, but for sorcs people typically like armour master with harness magicka instead... oh, and tanky 5L > tanky 5h on magicka.

For monster set I’m not sure which one is best.

Sorc is the one class I don’t have so my advice likely isn’t tailored to your class but maybe something like this?

Resto/Resto:

Sorc Ward, Ward Ally, Matriarch, Symbiosis, Ball of Lightning - Light’s Champion

Matriarch, Rune Cage, Rapid Regen, Combat Prayer, Boundless Storm - Absorbtion Field

Sorry, I don’t know sorcs we’ll so am guessing at which sorc abilities would be best. In general I’d say incorporating Combat Prayer is a good idea.

Thank you. Transmutation really good.

I change my build:
Transmutatiom Resto staff Frontbar defensive trait , jewelery trait magicka
Seducer 3heavy ( chest, legs, shoes) 2light (hands,waist) all impe
Bloodspawn 2x heavy, impe
3stat ench (head,chest,legs) and magicka (Shoulder, Waist, Hands, Shoes)
Blackrose Restoration Staff with powered trait. Backbar

I change my Altmer for Argonian. Breton is good too.

Frontbar : Mutagen (transmutation proc), Summon Twilight Matriarch, Rune Cage , Restraining Prison, Boundless Storm, Absorption Field

Backbar : Ward Ally, Summon Twilight Matriarch, Hardened Ward, Dark convertion , Ball of Lightning, Light's Champion

Mundus : The Lady

If you ran protective traits on 2 jewellery and the magicka mundus you would end up with more resistances and more magicka.

Having said that you could go breton and replace seducer too. Lich on a proc bar is also strong.

Yea, I agree with Betty. Usually what I do when I’m trying to figure out how to create my spec is I look for stat efficiencies. By that I mean certain sets and items are better then others, for example prismatic glyphs give you more of 3 stats then if you use 3 individual stamina, magicka and health. All 3 stats are good in pvp so I always use all prismatic glyphs.

Then I plan around hitting certain benchmarks like X health, X resists/defence (enough so you’re ungankable) and so much sustain. Then with what’s left I try to boost my healing as much as possible. Some sets like impregnable armour make no sense to use as a healer because Transmutation gives almost as much crit resists for just yourself, plus have a group benefit.

One more thing. If you’re pvp healing in cyrodiil full healers work well. If you’re pvp healing BGs adding some damage is helpful to offset having a healer instead of a dps. It also helps to pay attention to your team mates and figure out who’s not worth healing because they’re in a ridiculous glass canon spec, or who’s using mist form because you can’t heal them when they’re low health. Hot them and shields would probably work well, just don’t blow your mana on matriarch heals.

3 stats on all gear ? I think its good bcs i have dark convertion ( stamina for magicka and health). In BG i have 30k magicka in overworld 35-36k. When i change magicka for 3stat my magicka will be low...🤔

Yea, it can be. As a pvp healer priorities change from pve. It’s personal survivability > healing output.

Just thinking, if you are running 5 heavy you dont need any where near that regen from those two sets.You will get quite a bit of magicka back from resto HAs which will also proc major mending. Coupled with major Vit from BRP makes for some crazy big matriach heals.

Transmutation on one bar can be funny. Mutagen isnt something casted under pressure and you will generally be on your BRP bar in the heat of battle. Which means you will less likely meet the conditions for xmute set so you may not get much value out of it. You are probably better running full xmute or trading xmute for lich jewellery and wep.

Maybe trade seducer for heavy shacklebreaker. Healing mundus or switch to atro if needed. Run 2 protective and one triune or infused with spell dmg glyph. 1 cost reduction (unless breton then run a second recovery) and a recovery for jewellery.

Definitely look into trying to run one destro. Heals and utility is better then just heals. Infused staff with blockade procs enchants well. Clench or reach is better cc then rune cage. Ive found mutagen to be quite week especially in BGs so you may need to forgo it to achieve that.

Just my 2 cents
