Wand + Longbow PvP Large Scale Build
- High AoE and Single Target Healing
- Great Utility
- Low Damage
- Low Mobility
- High Skill Ceiling
Overview
This Wand and Longbow build is tailored for large-scale PvP, offering outstanding healing capabilities alongside moderate damage-dealing potential when needed. It includes crowd control abilities to ensure your freedom of movement, allowing you to stay in sync with the zerg you're supporting. Regarded as the cookie-cutter build for healers, mastering it positions you as the most potent healer one could ask for in large-scale PvP engagements.
Attributes
Your priority with this build should be Wisdom, as it grants you high max mana which is very needed for a healer. Not only that but Wisdom also improves your mana regeneration and cooldown speed which are all needed. Once Wisdom is at 30, you want to put 30 points into Dexterity for extra defensese as this stat improves your defensive stats, helping you remain alive for a longer period of time even when focused. The remaining 9 points are best spent into Strength for some extra HP!
Skills
Skill Priority
When prioritizing skill upgrades, your first focus should be on getting 
Swift Healing up to Epic level. Simultaneously, upgrade 
Touch of Despair and 
Nature's Blessing alongside Swift Healing. Since the build mainly relies on epic high-level skills, you won't have many skills that need to be upgraded before reaching the maximum level. Your priority should remain the same once you start upgrading epic skills, with the healing abilities taking priority over everything else. That for, 
Fountain of Life, Swift Healing and 
Clay's Salvation are where you will spend all your purple books.
Passives Priority
The passive skills remain relatively consistent, relying on many high-level passives, which keeps the cost of the build quite low. This makes it entry-level friendly, even for players that prefer different weapon combinations but are interested in trying out healing or support roles in large-scale PvP.
Prioritize 
Devotion and Emptiness as it increases the amount of healing provided through all your healing abilities. 
Distorted Sanctuary enhances your defensive stats as long as you remain near other party members. Meanwhile, 
Wraith's Beckon extends the duration of your curses, providing extra healing thanks to 
Vampiric Contract.

Wand:
Dedicating 9 points to Recovery stands as the prime option, amplifying your healing potential while also enhancing mana regeneration. For the remaining 3 points, allocate them to Weaken, primarily to prolong damage duration.
Bow: Assigning 8 points into the Check row proves most useful, providing heightened cooldown speed, additional mana, and mana regeneration. Allocate 4 points into Support for a slight boost in health, health regeneration, and movement speed that will help you keep up with the rest of the group.
Rotations
- While this build doesn't adhere to a strict rotation, as it focuses on addressing emergent situations and healing up zerg members as needed, the following rotation is recommended when your team initiates a push against the enemy group. Begin with Nature's Blessing, aiding nearby players in regaining lost HP and mana. Utilize
Blessed Barrier on frontline tanks or engagers to prevent them from being instantly killed as they push forward. Apply 
Deadly Marker to incoming enemy melee DPS so they take much more damage while using 
Cursed Nightmare to apply pressure on the enemy by sleeping their engagers. Drop Fountain of Life on the ground wherever there is the highest density of friendly players. Finally, use Swift Healing on whoever sustains damage nearby.
Blitz: Blitz is an exceptional ability with remarkable versatility, allowing you to reset the cooldown of skills such as Blessed Barrier or Clay's Salvation. Employ it when the dungeon becomes chaotic and everyone is sustaining excessive damage. However, be mindful of the mana cost associated with repeatedly using high-level abilities.
Clay's Salvation: This is your area-of-effect (AoE) healing ability. Aim to use it whenever your group mates are clustered closely together, ensuring the AoE heal reaches all of them effectively.
Nature's Blessing: This bow ability serves as a valuable source of passive health regeneration. Once it reaches epic grade, it also augments mana regeneration, aligning perfectly with 
Inner Peace, an ability commonly utilized by mages. If you're not under pressure from enemies or simply holding a position after a fight, communicate with mages in your group beforehand so they can prepare to use Inner Peace and fully replenish their mana reserves by using the ability right as you use Nature's Blessing.
Touch of Despair: While serving as one of your few damaging abilities, when paired with the Vampiric Contract passive, it can offer substantial passive healing as long as you maintain curse stacks on the targets. It shouldn't take precedence over healing skills, but you can certainly utilize it when you're not actively healing anyone or when other abilities are on cooldown.
Useful Information
- Select Lady Knight Kamarshea as your guardian; it provides essential protection with its shield, capable of absorbing damage equal to 50% of your mana. This not only aids in mitigating damage but also increases your cooldown speed in order to let you heal more often.
