User:Ellison.dean/Zealous PVE Healer

This build focuses on the Monk elite skill Zealous Benediction to provide healing for a party. With the excellent healing provided by Zealous Benediction, as well as its excellent Energy gain when used on specific allies, this build is able to provide the Protection of a Monk specializing in Protection Prayers, while still being able to heal like one who specializes in Healing Prayers.

Equipment

 * Any weapon will do, a weapon that lengthens enchantments is recommended (such as a Totem Axe, Rajazan's Fervor or a Staff with Staff Wrapping Of Enchanting).
 * Any armor can be used, as long as it has maximum AL. However, most PvE healers prefer armor with Radiant Insignias.
 * Runes of Minor Divine Favor, Superior Protection Prayers, Superior Vigor

Usage

 * For minor heals, try to maintain an ally's health using Reversal of Fortune and Dismiss Condition.
 * Allies taking heavy damage should be enchanted with Protective Spirit.
 * Aegis should be used to defend the party. You should always precast Glyph of Lesser Energy before casting this.
 * Spamming Dismiss Condition on party members enchanted with Aegis provides excellent healing.
 * Use Glyph of Lesser Energy to remove the energy cost for your more expensive spells.
 * Prevent party wipes and resurrect allies to a safe location with Rebirth. Because it drains all of your energy, avoid using this skill in battle.
 * Remove harmful Hexes with Holy Veil.

Counters

 * Diversion is a major counter to this build.
 * Interrupts or anti-spamming spells hinder your output of healing spells.

Variants

 * Rebirth can be replaced with another resurrection spell of your choice, although this is the preferred spell in PvE. Resurrection skills can be replaced entirely if your party has other members that can Resurrect.
 * Shield of Absorption can replace Holy Veil or Rebirth.
 * For a different type of Condition removal, at the expense of the extra healing while under Aegis, consider taking Mend Condition or Mend Ailment.
 * Signet of Devotion can be used for an energy-free heal.
