Healer

A restorer who keeps a party standing with heals, cleanses, damage reduction and bonds that share out damage.

Healers restore health, remove afflictions and protect companions before an attack lands. Their spells include direct healing, healing over time, damage reduction and bonds that share incoming damage. Several abilities use supplies from the Healer's Pouch, so getting ready means checking both SP and stock.

In a group, the right choice depends on the injuries and effects in play: a cleanse may do more than another heal, and a shield can stop a dangerous hit before it lands. Take care with bonds, because some pass damage to you. Cloth armor offers little when enemies reach the healer.

An Explorer of level 10 or higher joins with join healer at the Physician's College in Aurin, in the Entrance Hall or the Treatment Ward. Aldric Voss trains the guild. A healer who joins a religion can later be anointed as a cleric by the leader of that faith, keeping their level.

Resources#

The healer spends SP on nearly everything. There is no second combat resource, no charge bar and no stance, so spell costs and cooldowns decide how long you can keep healing.

The one physical resource is the Healer's Pouch, managed with supplies from level 3 and shown on the client's class panel as a bar per item. Active spells that produce or consume a tangible object draw from it; passive abilities never do. Restock at a Healer's Sundries counter using list and buy.

Pouch item	Used for
Crystal Vial	Brew Elixir and Create Holy Water
Linen Cloth	Bandage
Anointing Oil	Cloak of Bravery
Holy Incense	Hallow
Calming Powder	Calm
Prayer Beads	Soul Tether
Wool Bedroll	Bedroll
Sacred Herbs	Brew Elixir
Holy Chalk	Nothing yet
White Shroud	Nothing yet

Carry caps are fixed per item, from three white shrouds up to fifteen bolts of linen, and do not grow with your level. Check the pouch before a long trip.

Passives are equipped with passives, two at a time, and only equipped ones work. Talents give you a point every ten guild levels, ten at most and ten at most in one tree, spent with talents spend <tree>. Each point in a tree makes every skill in it 2% better: it strikes and heals 2% harder and comes back 2% sooner, so ten points give 20% of each. Passives are untouched, and each point in Healing also makes your own weapon blows 2% stronger.

Talent Trees#

Healing#

The restoration tree. It runs from bind at level 2 through the heals over time and the large single heals up to healparty and resurrect, and also holds the practical support tools like diagnose, bandage, bedroll and brewelixir.

Protection#

Damage prevention. Shield blessings, damage reduction, hex and affliction cleansing, and bonds that link you to an ally so that a share of the damage they take is either passed to you as damage or returned to you as healing. Most of it is cast before the damage arrives.

Faith#

The class's utility, blessing and passive line. It holds the pouch, the tools for tracking the fallen at any distance, calm and pilgrim, and all eight of the healer's equippable passives. Its blessings sit here too: bless at level 6, which makes an ally's blows land heavier, spotlessmind, which strips one debuff at random from an ally and cannot be cast on yourself, and unbending, which you cast on yourself to throw off and then refuses stun, root and knockdown.

Divine#

Consumables and the heavy emergency saves. Creating light and holy water at the low end, and at the high end divineintervention, the ability you hold in reserve for the moment a fight goes wrong, plus healershand, which sends a single item from your inventory to any other player who is online, wherever in the world they are, summon to pull a party member across the world to you, and miracle, the elite skill usable once a day, that makes the whole party in the room whole again.

Skills#

Passive rows show the level at which passives equip will accept them.

Playing a Healer#

At low levels bind is a quick heal to use between ordinary attacks. bravery blesses a worn cloak and spends anointing oil, and createlight gives you a light. The Healer's Pouch opens with supplies at level 3; check it before you leave a supply counter.

Healing needs change during a fight. healingbreeze keeps up with steady damage on one ally, orison is the direct heal, and vitalize keeps a fighter swinging without spending endurance. Use diagnose when an affliction may be behind the damage, because healing alone will not lift it.

Protection spells go on before the attack comes. aegis helps an ally fighting with a shield, and auraofstability stops them being knocked down. Shields, damage reduction and bonds work differently; check whether a bond passes damage to you before using it on a companion under heavy attack.

Healing talents make the heals stronger, while Protection talents support prevention. Passives split the same way: Tender Hand and Devotion help healing, Group Mender spreads it to the party, and Holy Skin protects you. Calming Presence keeps creatures off you while you travel. Only two can be equipped at once.

Agree with your companions on who holds the enemy's attention. If a party member dies, recall fallen and tether help find the body, and resurrect can bring them back where its conditions are met. Keep enough SP and supplies for the recovery spells the party expects you to have.
