Healing in Fellowship isn’t just pumping HPS—it’s running the fight’s tempo. When you plan cooldowns, predict spikes, and triage with intention, your group turns “almost” attempts into clean one-shots. This guide gives you a repeatable system you can use in dungeons, raids, and PvP to make healing calm, predictable, and efficient.
Check out some of our most popular Fellowship services:
Proactive > Reactive: you don’t wait for bars to drop—you flatten damage before it lands.
One-for-one trades: you never dump three cooldowns to solve a one-CD problem.
Position = EHP: smart positioning prevents more damage than any heal spam.
Triaging with intent: you save the ally that keeps your win condition alive.
Turn off visual clutter. Make HP numbers big and legible, and enlarge debuff stacks.
Always see: enemy cast bars, ally defensives, your major CDs.
Keybinds: cleanse/interrupt/stun/external save on Q/E/R/F or easy mouse mods.
Sound cues: enable “important cast start” and “ally HP critical.” Disable spammy ticks.
Different fights demand different plans. Learn to identify:
Scripted Waves: predictable AoE every X seconds. Solution: timeline with mitigation → throughput rotation.
Front-Loaded Burst: big hit then calm. Solution: pre-shield → DR → throughput then triage.
Attrition: long, steady pressure. Solution: efficient casts, mini-CDs, mana pacing.
Random Spikes (PvP/pulls): keep targeted saves ready; don’t burn raid-wides on chaos.
Group your tools by job:
Mitigation CDs (DR/Barriers): used before the hit to flatten damage.
Throughput CDs: big healing amps for scripted waves or clutch recoveries.
Targeted Saves (Externals): single-ally lifesavers.
Tempo/Utility: movement, cast protection, resets, dispels.
Order of operations: Mitigation → Throughput → Triage. Flatten first, top second, fix leftovers last.
Write down every major hit (boss abilities, add spawns, “go” windows) with timestamps.
Place mitigation on the earliest consistent waves; spread them evenly.
Place throughput 1–2 waves later to catch staggered or residual damage.
Reserve one targeted save for each “lethal” event (tankbuster, marked player).
Sanity check: if two major hits are 20s apart, stagger CDs; don’t stack “just in case.”
Example (6-minute boss):
0:30 AoE → Barrier/DR.
1:00 AoE → Throughput.
1:30 Tankbuster → External.
2:00 AoE → Barrier/DR.
2:30 Adds explode → Throughput + ground.
Repeat the loop; adjust if your kill time shifts.
Guaranteed Lethal (targeted mechanic ticking to zero).
Tank / Space Holder (if they die, the field collapses).
Win-Con Player (battle res, group DR, key interrupts).
Multi-target Efficiency (one GCD that stabilizes several).
Top-offs (only when it doesn’t risk #1–#4).
Rule of thumb: Two people at 35% > one person at 10% if neither will die in the next second.
Line-of-Healing: position to see tank + melee without eating cleaves.
Anchor Rotations: pick a pillar/ramp and rotate with the group, not through them.
Triangle Spacing: form a loose triangle with tank and ranged; one step = LoS to both.
Pre-HoT before moving; use speed boosts to re-establish a cast lane fast.
Kill debuffs first: healing reduction, stuns/roots during danger, ticking % HP.
Batch cleanses when safe (2–3 targets at once).
PvP bait: fake a big cast, force their silence/interrupt, then cleanse safely.
Aim for target mana at key boss HP breakpoints (e.g., 70% mana by 60% boss HP).
Use potions/regens during lulls, not when everything is on fire.
Overhealing >0.4 means your CDs are mistimed or you’re late on mitigation.
Barrier/DR Healers: excel at flattening waves; pair with a throughput partner.
HoT Sustain Healers: smooth attrition; pair with burst or external-heavy healers.
Burst Healers: perfect for add explosions; rotate on a 60–120s cadence.
External-Rich Healers: own tankbusters and “save that DPS” moments; call your timings.
Duos that feel great: DR + Throughput, HoT + Burst, External-rich + AoE pump.
Check out some of our most popular Fellowship services:
Pre-cast just before the hit; cancel if the damage is delayed.
Stutter step: move on GCDs, stand still on cast bars.
Weave utility: slow/knock to reduce incoming damage—a prevented hit is infinite HPS.
Target swap speed: mouseover macros for spot heals and cleanses.
Dungeons/Fractals (5-man):
Call an interrupt order; missed casts cause more HPS than any heal.
Stagger tank externals: yours on pull 1, tank’s DR on pull 2, yours on mini-boss.
Pace pulls around your regen windows—ask for 5s before a chain pull.
Raids:
Assign ownership: one healer owns mitigation windows, another owns throughput, a third floats triage/cleanses.
Post your CD timeline in raid chat pre-pull.
Battle res discipline: res the role that restores your win condition.
Pre-HoT the focus target; track enemy burst cooldowns.
Peel first, save second: a slow/knock can prevent the entire kill window.
Trade 1-for-1 with enemy goes. If they commit major burst, answer with one defensive.
Reset calls: “Kite for 5, wall in 10, re-engage on my go.” Your voice sets rhythm.
30s AoE Cycle
Wave 1: DR/Barrier + instant AoE.
Wave 2: Throughput + pre-HoTs.
Wave 3: DR + ground heal.
Wave 4: Throughput + targeted save.
Repeat.
Tankbuster → Add Explosion
T-5s: External + pre-shield on tank.
T+0s: instant single + light DR on melee.
T+6s: Throughput + ground + knock/slow control.
T+12s: Triage, then drink if scripted lull.
Kiting Phase (Spread DoTs)
Pre-HoT everyone; place grounds on move spots.
Rotate efficient casts, batch cleanses, save throughput for regroup.
“Barrier next wave.”
“External tank in 3.”
“Don’t stack CDs—mine now, yours next.”
“Reset right 5s, re-go on me.”
15m UI pass: make HP/debuffs readable; bind externals, cleanse, interrupt.
20m timeline sim: on a dummy, press DR at 0:30/1:00, throughput at 0:45/1:30, triage between.
10m movement drill: circle a pillar; keep LoS to two “allies,” cast without panic.
15m review: after a wipe, answer: What killed us? What CD would have flattened it? Adjust.
Pre-pull: timeline posted, externals assigned, regen on keybind, personal defensive reachable.
During: pre-HoT before movement, one-for-one trades, call resets before panic.
Check out some of our most popular Fellowship services:
Post: pick one mistake to fix next pull (late barrier, wasted throughput, missed cleanse).
Everyone low, OOM: mitigation too late; shift DR earlier.
One ally keeps dying: assign a targeted save to that mechanic; adjust pathing.
Random deaths: over-movement/LoS issues; tighten formation, simplify routes.
Overhealing 50%: you’re stacking CDs—spread them across waves.
Should I save big CDs for emergencies? - Plan them on scripted damage; emergencies shrink when your plan is solid.
How do I heal while moving? - Pre-HoT, use instants during travel, and anchor quickly for the next cast lane.
What stat spread is best? - Favor haste/cast-speed for smoother triage, then augment with mastery/vers or crit depending on your class’ kit.
