Overview
This Wand & Tome and Dagger PvP build stands out as one of the top support builds for large-scale PvP scenarios. Its strength lies in shielding your team during extensive combat by thwarting enemy advances while bolstering your group's offensive with strong healing capabilities.
Attributes
Your primary focus with this build should be Wisdom, as it enhances your maximum mana, crucial for sustaining prolonged engagements. Additionally, Wisdom boosts mana regeneration and cooldown speed, essential for maintaining your abilities. After reaching 30 Wisdom, allocate 30 points into Perception to amplify your damage output, thereby increasing the effectiveness of your healing abilities. The remaining 9 points can be invested in Strength to bolster your base HP, enhancing your survivability in PvP encounters and maximizing your maximum HP.
Skills
Skill Priority
When prioritizing skill upgrades, focus on getting Swift Healing up along with Inject Venom as they make the biggest impact, allowing you to stack poison up to 20 on your targets while rare level of Swift Healing allows you to cast the ability twice. Rare level of Touch of Despair also increases the number of curse stacks you can place on a target. Afterwards you should turn your focus on Shadow Strike so you can lower it's cooldown and also bind targets whenever you teleport behind them.
Passives Priority
You should prioritize Devotion and Emptiness as it increases the amount of healing you provide through all your healing abilities and it couples well with Noble Revival. Meanwhile, Wraith's Beckon extends the duration of your curses, providing extra healing thanks to Vampiric Contract, allowing the use of your curses to heal the frontline of your group without your active healing attention. Assassin's Instincts, is a good offensive passive that grants you extra critical hit while Shadow Walker is our only defensive option.

Wand:
Investing 9 points in Recovery is the optimal choice as it increases the amount of healing you can perform while also providing extra mana regeneration. The remaining 3 points can be allocated to Weaken, primarily for extending damage duration.
Dagger: Investing 8 points in the Check row is an excellent choice as it offers increased cooldown speed and extra mana, along with mana regeneration. Allocating 4 points into Support will provide a bit of extra health and health regeneration, as well as added movement speed.
Rotations
- The Healer build doesn't follow a strict rotation, but here's a solid strategy to kick off any boss fight: Begin by pre-healing your tank and reducing the boss's resistances. Start debuffing the boss with Time for Punishment and Deadly Marker, weaving Touch of Despair between the two so you may start offering heals to your tank through Vampiric Contract Place Fountain of Life on top of the tank to provide continuous healing as long as they remain within the AoE, supplemented by the passive healing from Vampiric Contract. This setup allows you to focus on topping up any damage taken by the DPS with Swift Healing. If any DPS member requires immediate healing, prioritize Blessed Barrier followed by Swift Healing.
Cursed Nightmare: This is your best ability in case you take aggro and need to get rid of mobs that are focusing you.
Blitz: Blitz is a fantastic ability with great versatility, enabling you to reset the cooldown of most skills like Blessed Barrier or Clay's Salvation. Utilize it when the dungeon becomes chaotic and everyone is taking excessive damage, but be mindful of the mana cost associated with repeatedly using high-level abilities.
Clay's Salvation: This is your AoE healing ability. Try to use it whenever your group mates are close together so the AoE heal can reach all of them.
Nature's Blessing: This bow ability is a valuable for passive health regeneration. Once it reaches epic grade, it also enhances mana regeneration, which synergizes perfectly with Inner Peace, an ability commonly used by mages. Before activating Nature's Blessing, communicate with mages in your group so they can prepare to use Inner Peace and replenish their mana reserves fully.
Touch of Despair: While being one of your only damaging abilities, when coupled with Vampiric Contract passive, it can provide significant passive healing as long as you maintain the curse stacks on the target. Ensure to keep the curse stacks up for optimal healing.
