It's okay I play as a healer my self and I did pretty well in the last beta. No problems with healing ex. Quest xp yer but not healing lol but then again I made sure to actually attack the mob with my staff whilst healing my mates. But the all know where block and roll is on there keyboard/mouse so it wasn't a problem keeping them alive all the time

are you telling me that all it takes to keep people alive is for them to block and roll a little? Well, the pvers aren't going to be happy lol

hehe

sorry, but that's all I've got at this point

Correct me if I'm wrong, but he's probably no longer worried about xp at that point...

This guy is goood

yer ya know the big red areas on the ground that pop up every now and then? They tend to hurt if you stand in them lol some say that some attacks can be interrupted as well lol

yes he will be no longer interested in going from v10-v15 when that content comes out. You are correct.

don't play a healer, play a class that has aoe so you get credit from everything

Not having the luxury of playing PTC, I have to ask those who have: Are there any "hell" levels?

I can't think of a single MMO which doesn't have at least a 5 level slot somewhere, where there's nothing to do but grind - either lack of content, of players out-levelling the content before it's time for whatever reason (inbalance, power levelling, whatever).

If there are, I'd not want to be playing a role that doesn't grant XP, no matter how chummy I am with my buddies.

its roughly 40k kills from v7-v10 and yes you run out of quest.. That was 40k pre-dungeon nerf not sure what it is now.

Ouch. Yeah, I think I'd want credit. For.every.damn.kill.

Whats your point? He got the wrong build? Wrong class, wrong set up, gear? Thatbhe cant dps?

yea and so does his group that's hemorrhaging health.

Hold on , i dont understand something. So there are a lack of quests in VR content and by 40k did you mean i have to grind 40k mobs to make up for lack of quests to progress through VR levels?

i think so yea

i was thinking about a healer type class but i think i will play dps now liek a bow wielder argonian dragonknight with HA

Holding your own is the only thing that gives xp. Say a tank can aggro a single monster, while a sorcerer or night blade is spamming aoe abilities on all of the little guys to make the boss easier to take down. The healer tries to focus on healing. That isn't to say that the healer doesn't contribute any dps at all, but healing is definitely helpful. Why should everyone have to tag each and every monster in order to gain xp? Should be based more on being active during fights, or at least being a warm, healing body IMO.

yes you do.... enjoy the pve public dungeon nerf.

Holy mother of god. So much for no grinding in this game. Can i spam run veteran dungeons to gain the exp during VR levels?

Im pretty sure healing in Cyrodill nets healers XP

It should also outside of there IMO

Just tagging every mob once as a healer could become tediously repetitive so I do have apathy towards the issue of this thread.

However the heals I was fortunate to group with did dps as well as heal and I lean towards favoring heals that throw out some attks.

I watched health meters as well and don't remember multiple low health party members being an issue but that doesn't mean it isn't an issue somewhere.

I would suggest one of the following added to your rotation

if sorcerer class your pet that attks

shield that does "x" damage while providing "y" protection to all party (fighter guild has one) and it is stamina resourced

siphons does "x" damage with "y%" healing all party

etc.

some Ultimates also do healing+damage but ultimates are not always up

So one aoe spell or shield or summons as your opener but don't start the fight first, let your tank or whoever cc /stealth start the fights healer

maybe as healer put a aoe ability on your bar and use it one time every pull

Are you sure? When I was doing beta I would see people fighting and throw them random heals and I always seemed to not only get xps but often got to grab some loot too.

thats also what he says later if you read the thread

what he is saying is that if you are in a group and only heal, you get no xp when the mobs die

healing from out of group gives contribution

sounds to me like a bug, hope they get it fixed before release
