I have a Nerco Healer who is currently in Olorimene and Mending both of which got nerfed this patch so what should I be wearing now?

    Mending got nerfed ?!?!

    Edit after I read patch notes about mending: I think the same is fine, olorime is just as good because non brain-dead dds will have 100% uptime, and mending while not as strong, is more consistent. But hey, healers can run many sets, question is what do you want to bring to the group.

    I keep wanting to use Twlightly Remedy because Nerco Healers have 3/4 synergies, but everyone has their own minor force these days.

    Are there other synergy proc sets?

    My templar healer does plenty of non-grouped healing and absolutely will not wear gear or slot skills that help only group but not 'nearby allies'.

    She dumped Barrier long ago as soon as it changed to group only.
    This patch, she dumped Earthgore and Winter's Respite for the same reason.

    What's next? Illustrious Healing only helps your group?

    Our takaway from this direction is to embrace selfish gear. I just put her into Seducer and Rattlecage.

    Olo is still going to be good, just two healers will have to run it, rarely are groups in a big enough stack anyway, so our raid groups always run two. Twilight though losing crit damage buff is still viable, sanctuary and jorvulds are good. Hollowfang may still be the best bet with Olo. Bogdans, symphony, sentinel for monster dependent on situations.

    U don't need 2 healers to run olo, 1 olo is enough to rule them all, just that the buff is applied to 6 people each tick instead of 12.

    I was wondering if it might be worthwhile to run Olo and the revised Lamia's song though. Lamia's can be back-barred, allowing me to use the Master Resto without having to worry about a lower uptime for my back-barred set. The only problem is that it only hits 6 people (presumably including the caster).

    I was also considering whether a decisive trait on the front bar would be worthwhile now that it was buffed. My healer is a Nord for the defensive/survival properties and the fact that he can generate additional ult through his racial passives, so decisive trait on front bar could further play into that and perhaps make Lamia worthwhile.

    If not Lamia's, what other sets would be good to backbar without suffering lower uptimes on second set 5th piece bonus? Guildmate suggested hollowfang, but I just don't see that having a high uptime if it is only back barred.

    Olo is great to backbar. z'en is great to backbar.

    It is super annoying how hard it is to get good healer gear, it's all DLC.

    Healing buffs don't seem important since it feels like there it too much healing in the game to buffing my healing more seems pretty meh.

    I have heard that a lot of Healers have just become off dps these days and just run Julianos.

    Honestly, both sets are still fine and will still be getting used by end game healers. I dont use mending myself though so not fussed about that.

    Winters respite is a lovely set, particularly on a warden I like it. Jorvuld is still viable, particularly with Olorime. Coldharbours favorite works. Draugrs rest works. Hollowfang thirst is popular.

    On my Templar I use:

    Kynes
    Hollow Fang
    Symphony
    Master's Staff

    If I need to use Olo, I swap out Kynes for it.

    The DPS never runs out of resources with this build. I drop Shards on the DPS, and roll Orbs to the Tank.
