Best healer for minions? - Guild Wars Forums

Ripped Britches · Nov 25, 2010, 07:02 AM // 07:02

does a Monk or Rit heal minions better? i assume it would be one of these two professions, but if not which does?

necromances blood of the master is the best heal for them.

you can use heal area or healing ring as monk

Necromancer - BotM?

I don't heal mine - I like them asploding in things faces.

Don't understand why you would want to heal minions. That is just energy wasted when they are just there to explode anyways.

If you are meaning while you are running around and not fighting, don't worry about it. Let them die off. If you are running AotL, you'll easily get them back. Minions are made for one thing, exploding. Just like Snograt said.

But I guess if you want to heal them, then an AoE heal would be best. Give your Necro BotM or have your Monk carry Healing Circle or something. If you use a Rit Healer, bring Life for an AoE heal.

Order of Undeath with Bone Fiends outputs some decent damage. It's very wasteful to sacrifice minions in a build like that.

Another vote for Blood of the Master. Or just summon new minions if you are bombing with Death Nova.

easier to just use BotM and let any rit(more likely N/rt) or monk to heal mm.
also spirits do effect minions(life,recuperation?)

fall back is nice to get them from one battle to the next with a decent amount of health

but in general, as has been said above, i prefer if they die with death nova for big damage :P

Blood Bond - Tried since it was buffed, and it's awesome, no need to bring a seperate minion heal, if healing is what you need. Also helps attacking and particularly melee allies/party memebers stay alive too.

I like to have Ogden run Dwayna's Sorrow along with my MM. Its a nice cheap party-wide heal. It doesn't heal the minions, but 50 health for every minion death is nice.

Just Sai · Nov 25, 2010, 08:11 PM // 20:11

i recommend combining the above two suggestions.
blood bond and dwaynas sorrow is more than adequate

healing minions is like repairing a rubbish bag

Fall Back, Blood of the Master and Life are probably the three best minion heals.
