For many, I know these two tend to come off as a bit of a pain. I rerolled them at first. But have since found easier ways to complete them.
For Heal Health(Ground), the best, and easiest way to do this, is to hop on to an engineer character withe a medical generator and head off to Nukara. One there, put on your enviro-suit, hop the transporter to Point Charlie, drop a med gen next to acid pool, and take a bath, while staying within range of the med gen. This will complete the endeavor in short order.
As for heal shields. I tend to do this on Kobali, since they have those shield damaging polaron weapons. This can be done with either a engineer character with shield generator and/or a engineer bridge officer with shield generator. It might take a bit of time to get a good spot to get plenty of incoming damage, to speed this up. I usually find the tranches works well for this. The thing is, once you get the good spot, don't kill the vaaduar, let them beat on you, while you stand int eh shield gen. The acid pool trick my work for this as well. I just haven't gotten heal shield(ground) in a while to test it.

I don't bother playing enough for passive healing to work. So I find quick ways to get the endeavors done. So I can just log in, do my endeavors, and currently the event tfo, and then log out and go play something more entertaining, i.e more challenging, like solitaire.
I'm currently running my Kling DR through his missions, as he's been neglected for awhile.
i guess the one with the most time you need would be 3 competitive queues because you need to promote binary circuit elite every time again and that coudl take a few minutes to start

Its a bit of a pain really as I build around passive healing both for ground and space so every time those Endeavors come up I have to strip off all my passives to make them doable. So if you found a way todo them with passives please share. It would save me a lot of messing around.

I went through 32 and had about 9k Healed. There were at least half a dozen times after I popped a Charge that the Endeavor marked no progress. Needless to say I had to leave it like that and call it quits for the night.
Discovery Tactical Character.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
I tend to use Nimbus as it’s easy to get to and the low level enemies are no real threat to me.
Failing that I head to the Voth BZ or even Kobali.
I generally dislike using tactical characters for the shield heal endeavor.

These kit modules are useful, but otherwise its probably best to use some weapons from the lukari reputation.

Or use this set https://sto.gamepedia.com/Lukari_Restoration_Initiative_Operative#Lukari_Piezo-Electric_Wrist_Apparatus which seems tailored for shield regeneration.
I'd say it may even be bugged.
The shield healing, as I said, is pretty easy on Kobali. Their weapons soften shields, meaning they take more damage. I generally do my Shield Heal(Ground) there on a tactical character. I just take an engi boff with a shield gen, and find a nice spot in the trenches of City Outskirts for it.
It hasn't come up lately foe me to test it in the Nukara acid pools. I do remember that it stripped my shield, before it did health damage. So, again, the idea may or may not work.
The most annoying personal endeavor I've ran across is heal teammates health. I generally reroll this one, because it's a pointless endeavor to try.
IIRC I used the lukari console to get that. The biggest problem with it is most queues too easy teammates don't need much healing.
That Universal I didn't complete. But I've also seen this as a personal endeavor. I tried the Lukari console, I think I made it to 213/3000 in 4 TFO's. So I just rerolled it. I even tried it on my carrier toon. Healing your hangar pets doesn't count for this.

Are you sure it wasn't for GROUND healing? 3,000 is the number for the green ground healing endo.
At least I haven't seen team heal as a personal at all, space or ground. And neither has the wiki it seems.
All I remember it was a heal teammates health. I didn't complete either, and rerolled the personal one. Which the overwhelming amount of self-healing, especially in clickable consoles. It's an Endeavor I'm not much going to try and complete any more. Because, it's literally not hard to stay near full health all the time.
And since the Universal is only worth 400 perk exp, it's not worth worrying about whether or not it gets completed. The only thing useful to me out of the endeavor boxes are the 1/4 spec points and mark packages. Then it's just a matter of which character I want to use them on, which I'm starting to get a back stock on these and need to decide on where to use them.
If you break it down, and know the fastest way to complete most endeavors, you can complete all 4 of them in about an hour. Which is good. That's an hour a day, where i don't have to think of a reason to go do something.
But that's my log in procedure.
Log in, do my endeavors and then ask myself the following 3 questions.
Do I want to go do that episode? Nope, don't need the gear.
Do I want to go tool around a battlezone? Nope, don't need the marks.
Do I want to run TFO's? Again, no, I don't need the marks.
Which is why I constantly wish they'd add low chance special drops to the TFO's. I don't know about anyone else, but this would give me an incentive to actually play the TFO's outside of an endeavor.
For some of the Endeavors, I need to park some characters correctly for them. Like, Defeat Tzenkethi and Hur'q(Ground) ones. I need to park a couple characters at the right spot in some episodes for them. So when they come up, I can hop on that char, do them real fast, and move on with the rest of my day.
For the Defeat Tzenkethi(Ground), I've heard some use Mirrors and Smoke. I tend to use the one that ends with the hur'q attacking DS9, can't remember the name right off.
For Defeat Hur'q(Ground), Home is the best. Either on the ship, or the final part with the wave attack.
I need to park two character at these two points, just for these endeavors.
Guaranteed, choose-your-own rewards combined with the general Easy Mode invites indefinite procrastination. Because you could get the rewards anytime you want, it would just be a waste of inventory space to get them before you actually need them. And because the game is Easy, you never need them.
Which leaves limited event rewards. But even there it's kinda sad that "it's gonna go away in 3 weeks" is the only reason to get them.
There is no need to park for episodes, since they come with free transwarps. You can have all relevant missions open on the same toon and just press button to jump there instantly whenever needed.
Only endos I generally switch toons for are the space damage types, because it's less hassle than switching builds.
Hmm.. this gives me an idea.
The next time Heal Teammate Health(Ground) pops up. I might see how quickly one can get it done by teaming up with a friend, and healing them as they stand in said acid pool.

Got it and tested it, works well.
Good PSA! Thank you.
