Ultimate Magicka Nightblade Healer Build for ESO

The SANGUINE MENDER Nightblade Healer Build focuses on buffing your allies with powerful damaging effects like Major Heroism while also pumping out tons of free resources! This healer build will be great for all Dungeons and Trials in ESO!

Primary Sets

First, the Perfected Vestment of Olorime, found in the Veteran Cloudrest Trial, is a must-have to give massive damage buffs to your allies by granting Major Courage. This effect can last for 20 seconds, and since it can occur once every 10 seconds, it doesn’t have any downtime. You can grant this buff by applying a ground area of effect skill while in combat to anyone who is standing in the ability.

Next, the Perfected Stone-Talker’s Oath set, found in the Veteran Rockgrove Trial, can grant an insane amount of Stamina and Magicka back to allies within 10 seconds of you Heavy Attacking an enemy. This set is perfect for keeping your group’s resources high throughout difficult content!

For our Monster Set, Earthgore provides a great bonus healing effect to the lowest health member of your group which is huge help in keeping your team mates alive!

Grand Rejuvenation is a 2-piece set found in Dragonstar Arena that also has a perfected version to add extra Magicka, which is always nice for healers. Every time you cast Grand Healing or any of its morphs (found under the restoration skill line) this staff invigorates you and group members by restoring Magicka and Stamina.

Skills Discussion & Rotation

Buffs

Try your best to keep up all ability timers as much as possible and refresh them whenever you need to. Remember as well to always heavy attack on the back bar to proc Stone-Talker’s Oath if using that set. Also be sure to mention when you’re about to use Warhorn so it isn’t wasted.

Rotation

Backup Bar: Sanguine Altar -> Elemental Blockade -> Funnel Health -> Healthy Offering. Reapply after timers run out.

Main Bar: Funnel Health -> Refreshing Path -> Radiating Regeneration -> Illustrious Healing -> Combat Prayer. Reapply after timers running out.

Use Energy Orb on anyone asking for resources.

Notes

Each of the Ultimates available on this build fits best in different scenarios. For Warhorn, when 30 seconds have passed of someone using an ability that grants the same buff, Major Force. Make sure you announce you are using your Warhorn.

Reviving Barrier is a damage shield that heals over time. This ultimate works best when your entire group is at risk of dying. Some examples include instant death mechanics which your team cannot avoid. You’ll use this before it happens or as it happens to make sure your group survives!
