Wardens are really good healers because they have a dedicated healing skill-tree called Green Balance. They also have access to Minor Vulnerability through Fetcher Infection and a few other good buffs and debuffs which can be a good boost to damage for the whole group.

Gear Setup 1

• We are using a frost staff with a frost glyph on the back bar to keep procing Minor Maim and Minor Brittle as well as providing a shield to allies.
• Make sure to use Powerful Assault on Jewelry and the backbar weapon. This is a medium armor set and therefore we need to use jewelry and weapon, otherwise we can’t run light armor on the other pieces.

Skills Warden Healer

It is important that Echoing Vigor is on the back bar, because the Powerful Assault set is only active on the back bar.

If you don’t have Vigor unlocked yet, check out the How to unlock the Vigor Skill Guide, it doens’t take long.

Skill Explanation:

• Radiating Regeneration: Very strong heal over time that you have to keep up all the time.
• Combat Prayer: This is your main spammable as a healer, it needs to be on the group members all the time to heal them and increase their damage by 5%.
• Illustrious healing: Very strong heal over time.
• Enchanted Growth: This is mainly here to apply Minor Intellect and Minor Endurance to the group and it also can apply Minor Toughness.
• Blue Betty: Keep this up as its your most effective resource management tool.
• Enchanted Forest: Only use this in “oh crap” moments. It is always better to use Warhorn to support your group with more max resources and crit modifier.
• Budding Seeds: Summon a field of flowers which blooms after 6 seconds, healing you and your allies in the area. The ability can be activated a second time to instantly trigger the heal.
• Elemental Blockade: Blockade of Frost grants a damage shields (Frost Safeguard) to protect you and allies from projectiles and immobilizes Chilled enemies.
• Echoing Vigor: Strong area of effect heal over time and also activates the Powerful Assault set in combat.
• Energy Orb: Always make sure that an Orb is present so your group members can activate the synergy for resources.
• Fetcher Infection: Keep this debuff on the enemy, applies Minor Vulnerability, increase damage taken on enemies by 5%.
• Expansive Frost Cloak: (Optional instead of Fetcher Infection) Gives your group Major Resistance buffs, that way they will take less damage if hit by an enemy.
• Aggressive Warhorn: This is your main Ultimate, it buffs the groups resources and increases the critical damage modifier for 10 seconds.

Champion Points for the ESO Warden Healer Build

Important Info for Magicka Warden Healer Build PvE

Buff-food

Ideally you want to use the Clockwork Citrus Filet as it provides you with a little bit extra Magicka and Health. However, that food is quite expensive, the other option is Witchmother’s Potent Brew that has similar stats.

Clockwork Citrus Filet (Max Health, Max Magicka, Magicka Recovery, Health Recovery)
or
Witchmothers Potent Brew (Max Health, Max Magicka, Magicka Recovery)

For more information on how to obtain the consumable and what the current prices are for it please visit the Clockwork Citrus Filet and Witchmothers Potent Brew page.

Alternatively you can also use Tri Stat Buff food if you need the extra stamina resources, good buff foods are Bewitched Sugar Skulls or Longfin Pasty with Melon Sauce.

You can find a full list of all buff food and drinks on the Food and Drinks Overview Page.

Mundus Stone

The Atronach gives us a lot of extra Magicka Recovery which we need to keep using abilities, make sure to get it! You can find a full list of all Mundus Stones on the Mundus Stone Overview Page.
