ESO Arcanist One Bar PvE Healer Build

The guide gives gear, skills, champion points, and consumables for an ESO Arcanist One Bar PvE Healer Build!

This build has been updated for the Update 41 patch, Scions of Ithelia for the Elder Scrolls Online.

Why Should You Play the Arcanist One Bar PvE Healer Build?

The ESO Arcanist One Bar PvE Healer Build is versatile and strong. Oakensoul makes the one-bar healer effective because you aren’t required to maintain as many buffs. The Arcanist uses abilities to create and consume Cruxes. You will use specific skills to generate Cruxes and additional abilities that consume them, amplifying abilities and triggering important class passives. Crux consumption could provide more damage, longer duration, cheaper resource cost, and more healing.

• Class – Arcanist
• Weapon One – Restoration staff

Skills

Radiating Regeneration (Morph of Regeneration | Skill Line : Restoration Staff) – Great multi-targeting heal over time ability, especially for mobile encounters, also helps to proc specific healer sets. Spam ability to cover more targets if needed. This helps proc our gear sets along with decent healing in high mobility fights, plus you can pre-cast before going into a pull for HoTs.

Energy Orb (Morph of Necrotic Orb | Skill Line : Undaunted) – A great heal over time with burst heal synergy. It’s a slow traveler but does everything for you as a healer. Keeps people’s resources flowing via undaunted synergy passive, huge burst healing anyone can activate and massive heals over time. The only downside is it’s not mobile and doesn’t have a great range.

Reconstructive Domain (Morph of Arcanist’s Domain | Skill Line : Curative Runeforms) – The Arcanist can provide important resource sustain buffs along with Minor Courage increasing weapon and spell damage. This can stack with our ultimate ability giving huge boost in damage to allies. This morph heals you but has a limited range so make sure to cast close to ally damage dealers. The other morph is better for higher uptime if you don’t need the healing.

Tidal Chakram (Morph of Chakram Shields | Skill Line : Curative Runeforms) – The Chakram skill gives 4 allies in front of you, shields, and a heal over time. You can pair Evolving Runemend crux generator with Tidal Chakram for a high heal per second shield combination.

Glyphic of the Tides (Morph of Vitalizing Glyphic | Skill Line : Curative Runeforms) – A unique ultimate that grants 200 weapon and spell damage.
