Brothers of Arms

[Faldman]

This is my current build after doing many tests. Take a look and i will explain why and how i came into this final build. This build is the best for 6grp instances and very good for Raids. So if you play many hours and not only for raids this is the best build.

My Build

General Tree:

Ether Recharge is a MUST spell as it restores alot of mana especially when you are the main healer that uses blue heal (wave of life). Far Reaching Spirit is always good cause most times ppl run when their life is low and they miss your big heal. Vindicator is a MUST as it gives more hate to soldiers. 1 point to Guiding Spirit is enough so the recast time of wafe of life is 2 secs and unlocks the Exemplar Spirit and Healing Spirit which reduces the cost of all heals!!!

Divinity Tree

Having Sacred Lance maximized is my choice as it increases the range of heal when casting Lance Of Mitra spell. Spell Light Of Mitra is very good both for you and your grp and i think it is a MUST. Blessing Of Mitra is a very good buff to help tank build aggro and get lower damage. Condemation is a very powerfull spell for dmg and killing minions. Holy Cleasning is a MUST not only for W2 but it gives AoE damage too and makes Condemation more powerfull. Finally Avatar Of Mitra as it gives mass stun!!!


Now if you play more for Raids and you want a pure Raid build my opinion is to remove the 11 points that are required for Avatar Of Mitra, change the Sacred Lance to 3 points and maximize the Spiritual Feedback in Divinity Tree and use 10 points to Improved Smite and Holy Vengeance in Vengeance Tree.


Healing Mechanism / DPS:

1) 6 grp: Using either both builds, never use pre heals in grp as they build aggro. Healing order is Emanation Of Life which will trigger all buffs, Wave Of Life, Rebuke, Lance Of Mitra which will give extra heal, Smite, Lance Of Mitra again , Smite, Rebuke and start over again with Emanation Of Life etc. At any time you can replace any of the smite with condemation spell especially on minions or undeads and ofcourse the Holy cleasning for AoE dmg, Repulse etc...
With this order you will have the Divine Halo on that gives extra healing to person with lower life and you will have the BURST healing on which triggers every 15 seconds.
Note: using first build you have 4 CC's and you can save entire grp or yourself. Never cast 2 CC's immediately on same target and be aware of the cast time and re use time of each CC.

2) solo: Using first build you start with both heals on and depending the case you use the Smite (single target), Lance (more than 1 targets), repulse etc. Using the Raid build you need to spam the Wave Of Life heal to maximize your extra holy dmg.

3) Raids: Using first build if you are not on MT healing/dps is same as in 6grp. If you are on MT grp and there is a BS too with increased heals you do as in 6grp BUT you turn against MT when casting blue heal so you wont replace BS blue heal. If you are low on mana you run and heal other grps to gain mana from healing. Always use Blessing of Mitra when at start and when MT is half HP. When BS isnt able to cast blue cause of low mana use the mechanism described in 6 grp.
Using Raid build you do the same things only that you need to cast more often the blue heal to have the triggered extra damage buff as high as your mana allows.


Important Notes

In all situations Avert Thine Eyes and Imperil (debuffs) must be running when they are possible of use.

When casting Lance Of Mitra spell ALWAYS be in line behind MT to get the extra heal.

When 2 or 3 healers in grp or raid try to keep a rotation on big heals.

Spamming blue heal is the worst you can do. Use it when it is needed either to heal or gain the triggered buffs.

Divine Halo which gives extra heal to the person with the lower life is triggered only when you have the Divine Blessing buff on at X5. Each lvl lasts for 15 secs and increases when a holy spell is casting during the 15 secs or it will disappear if none holy spell is casted during the 15 secs.


Any suggestions and questions are welcomed

Nice guide! One option when there is a BS or ToS who is doing the blue healing is to put a lower rank WoL on your taskbar. This will not overwrite other BHs but should still give you the same buffs and will save you from turning around.
