To create the best Healer build, start with choosing the Breton race for their offered restoration bonuses and magic resistance. The Mage birthsign gives some extra Magicka that is essential for the Healer to cast the spells early on. Also, it’s better to specialize in Magic to boost the effectiveness of spells and to focus on Mysticism, Restoration and Light Armor for survivability.
Use Apotheosis staff and the right dagger for the backup damage when the spells are not enough. Additionally, joining the Mages Guild offers access to the trainers and the powerful spells, making it the best faction in the Healer build guide.

Best Birthsign and specialization


The Mage birthsign will be ideal for the Healers. It offers them +50 Magicka to sustain the spellcasting. As an alternative, Atronach offers magic absorption. However, it limits the regeneration of natural Magicka.
For specialization, Magic will accelerate skill progression and enhance Restoration, Alteration, and Illusion. It improves defensive capabilities and improves healing. The setup ensures the spells are strong (offers rapid access to the high-tier spells) while keeping the remastered Healers protected during the combat.
Note: But the specialization setup of the Healer explained above might limit the physical offense. So, balance skill uses and avoid the enemy scaling concerns when leveling.

Essential skills for the Healer


The effectiveness of Healer is dependent on the skill balance. So, give priority to Restoration for healing, Light Armor for defense, and more. Some minor skills like Armorer and Blade further add versatility without compromising the core abilities.
For some of the best major skills, keep the focus on the ones' discussed below.
  • Restoration- ensures healing fatigue, health, and buff allies.
  • Mysticism- detects life (soul traps) while absorbing spells.
  • Light armor boosts agility and protects the Healer.
  • Illusion- disrupts the enemies and helps with crowd control with the fear or calm spells.
  • Destruction- if offers emergency offense. Acts as backup damage with the elemental spells.

Some of the best minor skills to focus on, are below.
  • Blade- if Magicka runs low, it’s the backup option. Supplements the close combat.
  • Armorer- ensures to maintain the durability of the gear.
  • Mercantile- secures the resource deals by getting better prices for the gear and potions.

Best weapons and armor for Healer


For the weapons, the Apotheosis staff deals with the elemental damage without the Magicka cost. It is, therefore, perfect for prolonged fights. Daedric Dagger, on the other hand, offers high-speed melee strikes when the spells do not work as expected.
As for the armor, the Shrouded Armor and Elven Armor (choose the variant you need) are the best. While the Shrouded offers stealth and resistance to poison, Elven is the solid mid-game alternative for the balanced defense. Make sure to enchant the gear for health regeneration or the elemental resistance for bolstering survivability.

Factions and leveling strategy choices


The Mages Guild is one of the best factions for the healers. It grants them access to the spells, trainers, and quests that enhance their magic abilities. Also, train with Falion to boost the Restoration in an efficient way.
For leveling,
  • Focus on Willpower and Endurance to boost the spell's efficiency and health. Give priority to the +5 bonuses.
  • Use the Restoration frequently to level it quicker.
  • Supplement with the Alternation for the defensive buffs.
  • Sleep quite often to apply the attribute bonuses upon leveling up.
  • Manage the enemy scaling by pacing the skill growth. Grind some minor skills like the Mercantile early on to avoid the overpowered foes later on.

Tips to Play Healer Effectively


  • Pre-cast the Alteration spells like the shield before the engagements.
  • Stock up and carry the health and Magicka potions for emergencies.
  • Use the Charm or Illusion’s Fear to control the crowds.
  • Swap up to Apotheosis when you are running low on Magicka. Apotheosis is a great weapon for backup.
  • Debuff the enemies with the Weakness spell before you strike.
  • Join Mages Guild quite early to gain access to the arcane vendors.
  • Balance the spellcasting with the dagger finishers to conserve the resources.
  • Stay mobile. The light armor will help you evade the attacks when you are healing.
  • Give priority to restoration. Make sure to level it early for the stronger heals.
