How to get top healing as any class

[JoeBruce]

As you may have noticed when you complete a scenario you can sort ranking by different categories: DPS, Healing, XP, KB's etc. As some of you have surely noticed some classes will have about 3k healing (T1) and not be a healing class (WE, WH etc). This is because of the bolster. When you participate in an SC under level 8, you are "bolstered" or boosted to the stats of a level 8. This means your health goes up each time you leave the starting area.

There is a boundary around the starting area in an SC, at which point if you cross you get the "bolster" effect. Crossing this line repeatedly will raise you + healing no matter your class. The easiest way to get up there is to enter the SC as soon as it pops, and then flee toward the boundary, you will be reset to the starting position each time you cross the boundary. I saw an IB with over 10k healing and was like wtf? Then I saw him just running back and forth across the boundary line.

Using this I have racked up over 4k healing before the SC even starts (Rank 1 Zealot) and ended up top heals for the entire match. Just a little FYI for anyone who wants boost their healing. Any questions, please feel free to ask

Haha, oh my god, I noticed this as well a week ago, but I never thought of using it for that reason, that is awesome! Gonna do that every single time on my Shaman from now on. Brilliant. xD

[TheFreak]

That's awesome. I've seen my health go +600 before and never even realized it was a boost. Thank you

Well I get around 16k healin in lvl 3-4 without using it anyway :P

Very, very cool. I wondered why my witch elf was healing so much :P

[Omnia]

[shazarn]

If you can't heal more than someone walking back and forth to get bolster as a class such as Shaman or Zealot you really bad healer. You cannot get top healing doing this.

[jasejunk]

Can if you're level one (more healed each time)

Yep, the more you need to be boosted to the level of the scenario, the more healing you do per run.

Hit flee and run into the wall over and over. I have had top healing on my Magus multiple times when I'm on the lower end of the bracket.



Edit: This is also a GREAT way to half-afk through scenarios if you're a healer. You do this at the beginning, find somewhere to hide near the battles, and nobody complains because it looks like you're doing a crapload of healing on the meters.

I wondered how that lvl 4 guy got 30k healing ty +rep

[JoeBruce]

Tyvm I think a lvl 1 tank is best for this

[Kauppaneuvos]

And this is totally pointless. No XP, no renown or anything from it. YAY!

[Tretabyte]

it's pointless now because, after the patch, they changed the way healing/healers get XP/Renown

You don't get any rewards for healing yourself. It's as useless as before the patch
