Waking Flame & Update 31 Healer Notes

- Happy Farming

Misc

Multithreaded Rendering
Multithreaded Rendering (Beta) is an optional performance optimization available in the Video Settings panel. This option enables a separate thread for the render process which can improve performance and provide a smoother overall experience if the limiting factor on your device is CPU processing, rather than GPU processing. The setting change is only applied after a client restart.

This feature is in Beta so if you experience any negative effects, please disable it.

Interaction Priority Changes 
We've added new rules for determining which things you'll interact with when there's a potential conflict. Generally speaking, interactable objects that are valuable (such as resource nodes and lootable corpses) will have priority over things that are mobile or player-made (such as Companions and Mementos). You should also have less of a problem attempting to interact with doors, Dye Stations, and other permanently available interactable objects, even when they're surrounded by Jubilee Cakes or Sorcerer pets. 

Notes: Lives count on us so remember to turn on Multithreaded Rendering and see how it runs. Especially you pvp healers, I got a good feeling you will like this. A special note for all those pet users, and pet haters they fixed it so less troubles... well hopefully.

Sets:

Dread Cellar

• Scorion’s Feast – Light
• 2 – Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
• 3 – Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
• 4 – Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage
• 5 – When you deal damage with a fully-charged Heavy Attack, you gain an Imbued Aura for 10 seconds, granting you and up to 3 other group members 307 Magicka and Stamina Recovery. This effect can occur once every 20 seconds. If you deal damage with a fully-charged Heavy Attack with an Imbued Aura active, consume it and gain an Overflow Aura for 10 seconds, granting you and up to 3 other group members 307 Weapon and Spell Damage.

Notes: This just says add me for any dungeon run. Also someone test it and see if we can stack it on 12? We know zos never checks such things till it's updated. Such an overpowered set. Defiently going to be standard for dungeons no doubt. '

P.S Good job zos a real healer set unlike.... >.> roaring opportunist

Crimson Oath’s Rive – Heavy

• 2 – Adds 1487 Armor
• 3 – Adds 1206 Maximum Health
• 4 – Adds 1487 Armor
• 5 – When you use an ability that applies a Major or Minor buff to yourself or an ally, send out a wave of energy that reduces the Armor of nearby enemies within 12 meters by 3541 for 15 seconds. This effect can occur once every 12 seconds and will only occur if an enemy is within range.

Notes: I mean torugs was on healers at one point, and I see nothing offensive about this set. I will keep in bank just in case for dps who could use the penetration. 

Magma Incarnate – Monster Mask

• 1 – Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
• 1 – Adds 129 Stamina Recovery
• 2 – When you heal yourself or a group member with a single target heal ability, grant the lowest Health group member within 28 meters Minor Courage and Minor Resolve, increasing their Weapon and Spell Damage by 215 and Armor by 2974 for 10 seconds. Daedric Energy will then bounce to a nearby group member, up to 3 times, applying Minor Courage and Minor Resolve for 10 seconds. This effect can occur once every 15 seconds.

Notes: Clearly more inclined to tank... but what fun we could have if we stack Scorion's feast, plus spell power cure. I think it will need more adjustments later down the road for tanks to use it as yolo has better cooldown and other sets provide better resistances. Though, someone tell me if I am wrong.

• Grisly Gourmet – Medium
• 2 – Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
• 3 – Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage
• 4 – Adds 1487 Offensive Penetration
• 5 – Adds 526 Maximum Stamina
• 5 – Dealing Light Attack damage grants you a stack of Baker’s Delight for 5 seconds. When you gain 3 stacks, you create a Sweetroll next to your target for 5 seconds. If you or an ally touches the Sweetroll, both you and your ally gain one of the following effects:
  • Restore 1593 Health, Magicka, and Stamina
  • Gain Empower for 10 seconds
  • Gain Major Force for 10 seconds
• This effect can occur once every 2 seconds.

Notes: A strange set that gives homage to Daedric Trickery Set. Truly, I really wise this was magicka, but at last it's solid stamina dps support/healer set for dungeons.

• Hrothgar’s Chill - Heavy
• 2 – Adds 1206 Maximum Health
• 3 – Adds 1487 Armor
• 4 – Adds 1487 Offensive Penetration
• 5 – Stunning or Immobilizing your enemy causes them to burst with frost magic, applying the Chilled status effect and dealing 26% of their total Physical and Spell Resistance as Frost Damage to themselves and enemies within 8 meters of them. This effect can occur once every 7 seconds.

Notes: Not really a healer set, this set brings up the point that looks like zos wants tanks doing frost status effect.
