Thread: Incoming Healing

Hi all,

I am looking to increase my incoming healing which is sitting at 16.3%. I do not have the advantage of getting access to the old relics so I am S.O.L there, but I thought maybe there were some items that I am missing which could help.

Use other relics that give inc healing (I'm sure these are settings and runes. Not sure about current gems, as I use old t9 gems with inc healing). 5 pieces bonus in Orthanc set gives some nice buffs to inc healing. Orthanc necklace gives something, as far as I remember. I'm not online now, so I can't give you more precise information.

Common options for inc healing include armour, necklace and weapon relics.

I would definiately argue that inc healing is preferable to raw morale/power especially on the relics. My own Warden had about 17.4k morale unbuffed at one point, he now has 16.2kish but is a far better tank.

Key items to focus on are neck (the new crafted is really nice). Relics you want two of the old store only ones (now available through melding) True Setting of Continuance? (from memory, prob wrong!). It's around 250 morale, 100 icpr and 1300 inc heals. Combine that with the block/1500 inc heals Runes (don't go for raw morale and power here however tempting it is!) and you have close to 6k inc heal on relics alone.
I'm lucky enough to have two of the old t9s for my Gems, but without those I usually see people run with morale/power/crit def ones for tanking.

Once you add up the above relics, neck and gear you start reaching respectability (20%+ ideally).

The T2 Dargnach shoulders have +1300 off incoming healing on them, I used those while I didn't have the galtrev or ToO shoulders, and are really useful if you need to stack that bit extra for bosses you need a lot of healing on (RoF T2).

With those, the Isen Necklace and a few relics I can run as high at 28% inc healing, although my morale takes a hit to about 13k unbuffed.

Thank you for replies. I do have the T7 Setting which has 1400 inc. healing. There are unfortunatelly no new runes or gems in either T6 or T7 which have inc. healing. The old store only one is also a setting. I'll check out the new necklace and continue to build towards the Orthance set. I am currently running with three of the draigoch and three of the Orthance.

Check out the melding options. I think that is where the best +inc healing can be found. But not positive, as I'm not in the game (obviously).

I have it off the orthanc armor. Im also using the new crafted crit necklace which gives lots of morale and lots of inc healing. Runes on LIs give inc healing. My unbuffed morale is 17,199 and my inc heals is sitting at 22.1%

What is the incoming healing rate cap for wardens? I have a little over 25% unbuffed (15800 morale unbuffed).

If i recall correctly 25% is cap. (30% if race of man)

That explains a lot, thank you for asnwering my noob little offtopic question.

My warden has 22.9% inc healing (man, though), mainly from the 1300 inc healing settings and 996 on the runes. I think some of the Draigoch or Thamen pieces have inc healing on them, not sure though.. but I'm using Thamen helm and shoulders and Draigoch rest.

Draigoch Helm has a very nice amount of inc healing. The thramen set bonuses are incredible for it too. Ideally i want to be in 5 piece thramen with the draigoch helm i think.

I use the 5 pieces Thamen and Draigoch gloves for the extra incoming heal. But this means sacrificing my might for some agillity and Evade.
If you prefer might over incoming heal, going 5 pieces Thamen and Draigoch boots.

I did some comparison for you:

Option 1: Draigoch gloves and 5 piece Thamen
Option 2: Draigoch Helm and 5 piece Thamen
Option 3: Draigoch Boots and 5 piece Thamen

The values shown in the tables are the value of the set (including the 5 set bonus) minus the value of other 3 piece Thamen, which are the same.

Option 1: Draigoch gloves and 5 piece Thamen	Option 2: Draigoch Helm and 5 piece Thamen	Option 3: Draigoch Boots and 5 piece Thamen	Stat value
3 pieces Thamen: Chest, Shoulder, Leggings	3 pieces Thamen: Chest, Shoulder, Leggings	3 pieces Thamen: Chest, Shoulder, Leggings	5 piece set bonuses
1417	1435	1426	Armour
563+656=1219	1312	563	Incoming Healing Rating
67	81	67+142=209	Might
67	67	0	Agility
121+223	101+223	121+223	Vitality
110	0	110	Morale
328	211	211	Parry
352	352	0	Evade
57	57	55.2	ICPR
996	1068	1068	Finesse

Edit: BTW, the Draigoch helm is not as nice as Cap of Service to Gondor. I think I got mine from one of the Helegrod instances (can't remember which)

I think I am lacking in this area right now. I have a pretty decent set up as it is but I think my incomming heal is only around 16%. I don't generally use relics that give it though. I have a couple, but I don't maximize it. I also do not group all that much so it doesn't matter as much for me. I am also missing some from my Helmet... which is not a piece from a set.
