Looking for a build for a healing focused cleric

arutha336

Hi All,

Just wanted to know a good build, including race, stats, and paragon path for a healing cleric. I want to focus primarily on being helpful to a group, but preferably without losing the ability to solo.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

My favorite during the BWE's was a cleric focused on crit/recovery with the heroic feat that procs a 15% aoe heal for crits. I had good solo capacity being built to crit often with reduced cooldowns, and it provided good heals in groups (imo). I went human (dwarf would have been a good choice too) with 16 14 14 roll (Wis Cha Str) with my +2 into strength (for more crit). I picked up the crit based heroic feats plus others, and mainly went down the Virtuous paragon path.

Here is a link to a build by zingarbage that is good looking:

Ya that is a terrible buold for a healer I would recommend not going that path, HAMSTER over the rogues when they have the highest single target dmg in the game and the are the most numerous is a terrible idea.

I prefer starting with 18 WIS, 13 STR, 13 CHA, 10 INT, 10 CON and 8 DEX, since those cannot be changed later even if you respec and WIS may end up becoming more important in future patches. Level up points would go into charisma and strength, and if something changed, they could be re-assigned. If the game stays the way it was in the last betas, less wisdom and more strength would be slightly more efficient. But the starting stats really only make a very small difference later on, so it is not possible to really mess up badly.

Also, there is only a limited number of possible starting roll options, so it is not entirely random and you can essentially decide what you want and will eventually get it. See here: http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Ability_Score_Rolling

That isn't a pure healing build. It is a dot/buff/debuff build for pvp. Though honestly, all of the cleric builds can just switch out feats to heal effectively.

I'd say build for action point building and get the hallowed ground feat that heals 5% of hitpoints every 3 seconds. You can get about a 50% up time on hallowed ground.
