Oh and also with new armory system you have 2 free slots with it so can have a dedicated healer one and pvp for example, or one for generally dealing damage in content that requires you to and swap to healer back without much issue so you can have sets like spc and some other healer ones on one spec and things like defiler on the other not loosing anything if that floats your boat.

Hot garbage. pLz dOn't BAn mE

Being that it's a pvp healer there are 2 potential routes

1 is team buffer with sets like transmutation and spell power cure

2 is combat medic with stuff like heavy kagranac and sanctuary

1 is squishy and a back line healer, 2 is more stand your ground and support teammates by taking damage from them as well as healing.

Personally I enjoy 2 when I heal in pvp.

i hear ya yep , and i typically dabble in BOTH (depending upon who & how many i'm grouped with) . And i suppose, now that i think about it, for Trials & such i'm probably more of the 'team supporter' back-healer role , since it's very rare to be accepted as a MAIN healer with hyrbid build (at least, from my experience) .

The big thing that stood out to me was how low your recovery stats are. If you're going hybrid I expect that main stats to be on the low side as you split them up, but I'm wondering if you could invest in food/drink bonuses that up your recovery stats to allow yourself to cast more skills.

Another thing you could do is consider the following move -- exchanging the defiler set (5 pieces) for the sellistrix set (2 pieces). The sets basically do the same thing (AOE stun), and it would open up a whole new 5 piece set for you that you could use for more recovery/stats or other cool effects.

For example:

5 Spell Power Cure
2 Sellistrix (keeps the stun that you would otherwise get from Defiler)
5 Recovery/Stat buffs and/or another fun set that does something unique/enjoyable to your playstyle

And THAT'S ^ that kind of excellent info (that i never would've thought of myself) i was hoping for!

THANKS so much! I'm def. gonna look into your suggestion, even though tbqh i only stay with 'Defiler' set cuz i just love seeing that freaky BEAST thing spawn every few seconds lol

Cheers @GrumpyDuckling !

Haha yeah the Defiler set does look really cool! I run it on one of my characters too.

Alternatively, if you want to keep Defiler, you could get some magicka recovery (plus another cool summon) by looking into a monster set like Chokethorn -- which also adds another heal to your mix.

Chokethorn
1 item: Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
2 items: When you use a heal ability, you have a 33% chance to summon a strangler sapling that heals you or an ally for 6986 Health over 6 seconds. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds and scales off the higher of your Maximum Magicka or Stamina.

That allows you to keep your original setup (Spell Power Cure and Defiler), while also pushing your magicka recovery above 1,000. Plus whatever food/drink you add can help too.

Another monster set option to also consider that adds sustain to your group plus more healing:
Sentinel of Rkugamz
1 item: Adds 4% Healing Done
2 items: When you heal yourself or an ally you summon a Dwemer spider that heals for 1000 Health and restores 125 Magicka and Stamina to you and your allies within 5 meters every 1 second for 8 seconds. This effect can occur once every 15 seconds.
