D&D 5E Best Healer?
- Thread starter gyor
- Start date
I was tempted to go with life cleric for raw HPs healing then I remembered stuff like twinned Heal, Raise Dead, True Ressuratution, Death Ward, Lesser/Greater Restoration, and so on, in addition to flexibly casting healing spells and Empower Healing.
Still if go for really long days without a long rest, but plenty of short rests, the Celestial Warlock pushes ahead of the other two.
Song of Rest is good, and Magical Secrets can poach healing spells from any class, so its hard to gage that.

A multiclassed Sorcerer 3/Life Cleric 1/Lore Bard 6 can heal over 2000 HP per long rest at 10th level with Extended Aura of Vitality. No one else even comes close, although you don't really need to come close because that much healing is ludicrous overkill.

Hiya.
Why wasn't there a vote for "Other"? If there was I would have chosen Innkeeper. Pay him a silver and he guarantees that by the next morning, everyone in the group will be completely healed. Nobody else in the game can claim that! (ok, maybe prostitutes...maybe...depending on amount of sleep and all that...).

You missed Lore Bard on the Survey. Although not as good as the Life Cleric (the amount of Healing one those puts out can be ridiculous), getting the Magic Secrets at lvl 6 and taking Aura of Vitality, and Prayer of Healing really throws out a lot of Healing.
Prayer of Healing always seems a little underrated in write ups. It's a second level spell that almost returns the game to 4E 10 minute short rest.

Played the Second one. I was amazed at how much healing he could put out. A one level dip into Life Cleric seems essential for any truly dedicated Healer. Also you get access to Bless, the best buff spell in the game, and Heavy Armour proficiency, which is great for a squishy Lore Bard.

No such beast. "Best healer" implies best at in-combat and out-of-combat heading.
Crap, I put Valour Bard, but I meant Lore Bard.
Make it Sorceror 6/Cleric 1/Lore Bard 6 and it can be a Empowered Healing Extended Aura of Vitality.
