Hey I thought i was the only NB healer out there. I love my Dunmer Vampire NB healer, he's all thematic, Blood magus vampire. He's my main toon and i love him!!
I love playing NB in general. I have a character for every role 4 total. It'd be cool to have that graphic behind you as a downloadable image also btw!
100% It’s a feature that will be on the website, it’s just not ready for the public yet. In the mean time, you can get them from the discord if you would like.
@@Nightharrowthe health is def nice in sweatier runs but.. I’m lost on where we are picking up “extra healing” one extra piece of any set isn’t going to provide any buff, only one piece buff set I know of in the game is Trainee.
@@mattywells It's a question of keeping one of the 4 piece bonuses active at all times. So spell power or max mag (which also gives equivalent spell power). So running 4 piece always active pillagers give you ~1k mag which is ~100 spell power equivalent.
@@Nightharrow Oh yeah, that wording makes more sense 😊 , def a more complicated set up for those starting out, especially if running SPC since the rotation is going to be a lot more dynamic since you will likely only be activating 2-3 BB skills at a time to keep courage up as best as possible.
I wanted to play an Arcanist Healer so I went Breton for that sweet, sweet magic regen. I can confirm that it is absolutely overkill. I don't think I've ever dropped below 75% Magicka. I still get decent DPS so I'm not complaining, but I really don't think it was necessary to go Breton. There's definitely a lesson in there about picking the race you like over what you think the meta might be.
Haha yeah, it’s still a very common recommendation as well, it’s just outdated by a year or more, and no one wants to run out of mana. Well glad I could help with the next one, thanks for sharing, I’m sure it will help someone to see it here.
I have a question as a relatively new, but dedicated healer, and you seem to be the person with vids dedicated to heals of all classes...I was running Vanus (hear me out) with Jorvuld. HEALING DONE was the goal. Saw ur vid about RoJo and decided to replace Jo with SPC for the moment -legendary kuta'd...but I have a regular drop green winters respite amulet that pushes my magicka higher than Gold/Kuta SPC....Plus I'm significantly squishier now...did SPC get nerfed? Bugged? And I don't feel dps output is my job so much as HEALING DONE is. Is SPC really just for speed runs? Help a healer out, ty
Hello! Sorry, this message didn’t show up in the RU-vid app for some reason, or I would have replied earlier. SPC hasn’t changed, so that’s not it. There are two reasons healers run damage boosting sets. The first is because healers don’t really need increased healing done, as most of their healing is over healing, and if it’s not then there is a skill issue with know when and where to cast heals. And if that is the case, increasing healing done is not going to help because you’re not casting enough heals to begin with. It’s hard to overstate how true this is. The second reason is that most of the things that boost dps also boost healing. So spc for example will also increase healing done significantly. The reason you want to increase group dps is not for speed runs, it’s because the quicker the fight is the easier it is on everyone, especially the tanks. It’s a lot harder to stay alive and do mechanics on a 10 minute fight than it is on a 7 minute fight. This is the same reason dps should t be wearing survival sets in group content as it will tank there domain the fight much harder. If you have more questions or I missed anything, come by the discord. Much easier to have a conversation there since RU-vid isn’t always the best with notifications!
Could you recommend a second set instead of Pillagers to pair with SPC? As I don't have access to trials yet. What would be a good substitute in the interim?
You can do normals at any level, but no worries if you are not feeling comfortable yet, they are definitely harder on lower level characters. If you have gold then I would go with powerful assault, if you don’t have gold then anything that looks or sounds good will do. Drakes rush is good for ulti gen in dungeons.
Not sure if you will see this, but in my mind, I thought Templar was good for heals. I’ve seen this video and your warden video; Is Templar bad in your mind? For heals? Because Wardens HoT and their other buffs seems better
Nah, templates are good. I just havnt gotten around to making builds for all setups yet. Getting g close though. Right now for optimization nightblades and warden are just best. Since you can heal well on basically any class in eso, often the more optimized groups will ask you to come on whatever is most optimal for the group. Kind of odd I know. But definitely nothing wrong with Templar heals.
To be optimal, yes, but I generally find it to be unnecessary/overkill to optimize more and it will depend what the tank is wearing. Usually it’s some combination of the sets I have on the trial optimization card for supports. What exactly that is depends on a lot of variables. If you are nuking then war machine or mag equivalent. Possibly PA, but don’t probably use that in a pug, and so on.
Sounds like you might be working in a specific context so there is probably a specialized answer, but if you just want dps then Spaulder of ruin is my first thought.
Not this last patch I don’t think but maybe in 42? If they would just make the bleed vampire abilities actually do bleed damage instead of magicka, that would be game changing.
Dealers choice. Hard hitting fights it’s weakening, magicka drain if you are having sustain issues (shouldn’t with syphoning strikes), or whatever sounds good.
Mag pls, I made one that "copies" the templar/archanist skill set up. It runs Bb: haunting curse/crit surge/blockade/liquid lightning/bound aegis/storm atro Fb: barbed trap/boundless storm/mages wrath/crystal frags/camo hunter/dawn breaker. Just not sure what sets to use or even if this skill set up is any good with good sets
Haha I feel you. So I’m working on the stam video now but have several setups ready to go. If you want to shoot me a message on discord I could send you the card. I had just begun on the stam version before I heard back from you.
