Useful Attack Devices for a Healer

If one is attempting to make as dedicated a healer as possible, and wants to add an attack or two from devices, what are the most useful devices for that role?

    Big AoE: Psionic Accelerator--good AoE damage, huge area, and will have nice paralyze if your Pre is high.

    Single Target Ranged: Omicron Enhanced Strength or Psychic Surge--okay ranged damage, short cool down

    PBAoE: Neuroelectric Pulse Generator--nice damage vs melee, including significant knock to get mobs off you, short CD

    Eroded Shard is nice to keep adds off you. (If tank gets aggro) has an mediocrr dmg.

    Radion's Revenge for Burn Through debuff to help your team's particle and crushing dmg and deals mediocre dmg.

    Probably one of the stronger summon devices, as they aren't dependent on you having high damage bonuses.

    Psionic, Ice Grenades, Dinos, Invocation of the Eclipse, Shattering Rain, there's also that shadow blast-pull device at the GCR vendor (costs scr only)

    Here is what I carry on my Healer.
    * Psionic Accelerator
    * Archer's Memory
    * Empowered Dragon Staff
    * Revenency
    * Supernatural Possession
    * Cloak of the Infinite Planes - I know many people scoff at this one, but since it has no CD, it make a good filler when you don't have anything else to do.

    I also like
    * Perpetrator Incapacitation Device
    * Banishment
    * Devouring Shadows
    * Shattering Rain
    * Ice Grenade, of course

    Other things you might think about
    * Zombie Bone
    * Poisoned Shuriken

    Also, for soloing, definitely get a DPS summons device. I use Rex just because I had one handy, but he's actually a pretty good little DPSer.

    These devices really do make low-damage builds much more viable.

    Meanwhile those that don't have the privilege to use such devices, you always got pet powers available in certain frameworks.
    Want to get to know me a bit better, Click me and take a read of My Dragon Profile Page, it's a bit dated but still relevant.

    I take this quote from a review that I agree with.

    "customisation is so linear; everyone is after the optimal dps:survivability ratio with 0 reliance on other players = autonomous gameplay... Players don't need each other anymore... which in my opinion is a bad thing."

    If you're Freeform of course.

    The point to my question is that I am trying to make as dedicated a healer as possible, but sometimes even a healer may need some attacks, so I trying to find the device attacks that seem the most useful and that don't break the bank. Some good ideas so far.

    I know of the question, just making a reply to his point.

    Are probably your best bet on the devices. NPG is really nice for a healer, but the price of it is hurtful. :(​​

    ATM I am going with Archer's Memory (since I had one lying around) and Psionic Accelerator (wish it could be colored) because it's so dang useful and I still had some Drifter currency.

    That saddens me about the Psi Accel too. It fits my Psy-Bee toon so well but can't be colored. :( Maybe in the future it can? :')​​

    Can any devices be colored? That would be cool, but I haven't checked.

    Some devices can be colored (though there is no UI to do so, so you can only color them by changing the color of all your powers), some cannot.
