Correction: the stamina difference I observed was due to a lower max stat. They cost the same no matter the resource you stack. Just an error in data collection on my part. I’ll make sure to clarify this in the stamina healer video.
Great video and I don't mind the length. I'd rather have more explanation than just a gloss over. It's a new class and I want to understand it fully. Thanks for this!
Thank you for the great explanations! Just getting back into ESO after a long post U35 break and trying out Arcanist healer. This was exactly what I needed!
You mention, @ the start of the Flex Skills section, doing a vid on crux building for healers? did you ever do that? or did you cover it later in the vid and I am not recalling it?
You are not missing anything, Im just a bit behind schedule. Since I do videos covering just about everything eso related I tend to intersperse them. That one should be out with the stamina version of this build. Im scared to give you a date because I might miss it. But I’m happy to answer any questions you might have.
@@Nightharrow No worries just looking forward to what you have to say on it... I am very much enjoying my arcanist healer and am basing it around your build. Taking my time leveling him, currently at 34, and not wanting to rush on it. I appreciate the response, and of course, the vids you put out for us all. Thanks!
very good way to explain everything! Do you think that perfected transformative hope can replace pillager? On what occasions would you use the “Ro-Jo” setup?
Hey Cuore! Thank you, I appreciate it! Unfortunately transformative hope is highly situational since you need the target to be under 50% which ideally should rarely if ever be happening. And even in some of the places it seems like it would be great for such as Cloudrest, it’s only maximally useful in execute so it’s probably wasted the rest of the time. So tldr is that it’s not really a set I would use or even bother making. This kind of thing is unfortunately kind of common. As for rojo, you want to have one healer in that set in most trials. It will work well in dungeons as well, but there are all kind of niche things you can do in dungeons, depending on your groups Dps, so it can be less useful there. But for trials it’s standard to have one rojo healer and one spc/pillagers healer in almost all situations. If you are in a really high Dps group, you can look at using something like master architect and then something else for the second 5 piece set.
Hey. Great video!!!! You help me a lot!!! But I still need a help with one more thing. I saw some builds wearing Powered trait in staff and others with Precise trait. Which one do you think is better?
Powered is better for raw heals, precise would be better for Dps (but also helps heals). There are a lot of viable staff traits but I like powered resto bar and infused destro staff.
I saw a pts build for Arcanist that had two restro staffs and focused solely on heals and buffs as much as possible while using enchants to increase the damage from the staff alone. I tried this out and enjoy it honestly as it fights my playstyle of a passive healer/support and I can have restro abilities on both bars. Do you think this kind of build is okay? Or should I swap over to a destro staff?
Yep, that is totally viable and something you see in HM trials. Could be kind of painful in a dungeon though, so keep that in mind. Lol Main this is if you want to improve I would t use a skill more than once.
@@Nightharrow Yah I noticed how painful it was to clear packs.. I did so little dmg.. So I swapped the weapon buff skill for the dmg beam and just use the shields to max crux first.
I make healers and tabks cause it's the only way I can even que up to even play this game,guilds want ya to parse for what when you can't even play yhe game as a dps
Yeah, queueing as a dps can be pretty tuff. We have some folks who run dungeons in That Wasn’t the Boss (the discord and guild I run). Idk if we will have what you want, but we are PC/NA if you want to drop by.
Haha it’s definitely not meta, but yeah I have seen that as well. I’m pretty sure there is some creator that is recommending it. I don’t want to hate in anyone but some of these guys just make very questionable recommendations.
@@Nightharrow And have to say, excellent vid.. learned a lot. As a returning "casual" player these types of breakdowns help immensely to improve my playing level. Thank you!
I lost me at most „complex“ and „complicated“ healer. There’s nothing „complex“ here. Archeal is as p2w as Arcdps And yes, I use Illustrious Healing instead because the Magicka gain on Springs kinda sucks and you can buff/debuff and dps more.
Hey Canis, Not sure what else to say other than thanks for dropping a comment. It almost sounds like you’re made at me about the Arcanist, but I guess you’re just venting about ZOS. Something I totally understand… anyways, have a good one.
I think healer is the way to go personally, but tank seems a close second. With a dad you would miss out on the unique ulti or the dps would loose Dps. Similarly for the empowering disc. I agree though, better to have the dad run them and help the group than not have them.
@@Nightharrow now do you think nightblade will go back to dps? I know most optimized groups use to use it as a healer but now with the archanist replacing that I wonder.
@@jonathanweed6683 I think so, or they drop the necro tank. I think for most groups (ie the 99.9% outside of super sweaty peeps) they should do arc/den healers.

Awesome, glad I could help!
great guide. I'm glad you opened with its a "complex healer"...which means i heard "thank god its not just me"
Haha yeah, definitely not just you. I think there are probably 4+ fairly unique setups you could do and a lot more that are just variations of that.
I love how you layout the information in your video. Great video, thank you!
Thanks Spencer!
Personally I slot combat prayer in every spot
Any why is there a 75 at the end of my name. I ain't no boomer
It’s because you’re as grumpy as a 75 year old who’s mad at the kids for being on his lawn.

ty partner! I appreciate it!@@Nightharrow
if a healer liked Winter's Respite how would you sub that into a build?
Probably the best thing to do would be to swap it with pillagers profit. Just one for one.

@Nightharrow ps5 so I'm doomed lol
thank you
Did rojo die off or somthing cuase i dont see people use it much 🤔. I seen people use spell power cure and jorvoulds idky
Haha it’s definitely not meta, but yeah I have seen that as well. I’m pretty sure there is some creator that is recommending it. I don’t want to hate in anyone but some of these guys just make very questionable recommendations.
To directly answer your question though, no, rojo is still meta, unless you can burn really fast, which is of course becoming easier.
rojo still relevant in trials, but not for general pve healing, jorvuld's is necessary on arcanist coz of the shield duration

Personally I prefer longer vids, but I never am asked lol...
I’m asking! That’s good to know. Do you just like all the info in one location or is it something else?
@@Nightharrow Hehe... One location, like this... makes it so much easier to take notes and to review things if needed ;)

I also like long form videos, but I appreciate time stamps the most

You think the arc was pay to win?? Just wait for spell crafting or whatever it's called. 😂😂
@@DS-lk3tx So how does that invalidate my initial statement because spell crafting is „more p2w“?
I wonder if optimized groups will either choose a tank archanist or healer in their set up. Heck a dd could keep up the minor courage as well.
I think healer is the way to go personally, but tank seems a close second. With a dad you would miss out on the unique ulti or the dps would loose Dps. Similarly for the empowering disc.
