Skills

Bar One: Restoration Staff for Healing

Radiating Regeneration (Morph of Regeneration | Skill Line : Restoration Staff) – Great heal over time that procs various gear sets. Consider this a must to keep at all times.

Purifying Light (Morph of Backlash | Skill Line : Dawn’s Wrath) – Procs minor sorcerery, generates ultimate and burst damage along with good healing on target.

Repentance (Morph of Restoring Aura | Skill Line : Restoring Light) – Allows you to have tons of stamina sustain for blocking. Consider this your flex spot. You can run Inner light for simpler setup. You can run energy orb for another heal and synergy. Another option is Overflowing Altar for burst heal synergy.

Luminous Shards (Morph of Spear Shards | Skill Line : Aedric Spear) – Provides a unique resources sustain tool and good passives for slotting.

Combat Prayer (Morph of Blessing of Protection | Skill Line : Restoration Staff) – Great healing buff since Living Dark is nerfed, I swap this in.

Life Giver (Morph of Panacea | Skill Line : Restoration Staff) – Insane survivability for you or the group with mobility and low cost.

Bar Two: Sword and Shield for Defensive and burst healing

Weapon Choices

1. Restoration Staff
2. Ice Staff
3. Sword and Shield

Channeled Focus (Morph of Rune Focus | Skill Line : Restoring Light) – Major resistances buff, increase our healing via minor mending and resources sustain.

Blinding Flare (Morph of Revealing Flare | Skill Line : Support) – I no longer use Extended Ritual due to an item set Plaguebreak . This gives us 10% damage reduction and is great counter gank.

Elusive Mist (Morph of Mist Form | Skill Line : Vampire) – Helpful mobility skill. It teleports you on a short distance, giving you an extremely powerful tool.

Aurora Javelin (Morph of Piercing Javelin | Skill Line : Aedric Spear) – Single target knockback and stun, used to punt people off of you and great for turtling which can be block casted (holding block and pressing).

Breath of Life (Morph of Rushed Ceremony | Skill Line : Restoring Light) – Insane burst healing for multiple targets.

Solar Prison (Morph of Nova | Skill Line : Dawn’s Wrath) – An insane burst tool with damage reduction and a huge synergy Grav Crush.
