10. The Worm’s Raiment
Blue Glowing Orbs from the Worm's Raiment
The Worm’s Raiment is a dungeon set from the Base Game, obtained from the Vaults of Madness Dungeon, it is one of the best sets to start with as a healer used in both dungeons and trials, it’s easy to obtain, grants a good range of stats for a healer, and provides everybody with additional Magicka Recovery for sustain.
It might seem like a miniscule buff but since you don’t need to do anything else other than to stick with your group, more sustain equals more damage for your Magicka DPS members and an easier time for your Tank with extra resources to deal with, get this set when you are starting, and you can pair it with almost any other healer set and you can’t go wrong with it.

It is often used in instances where you or a group member will need extra healing to deal with Mechanics, Instances include Sunspire’s Lokkestiiz during the Ice Tomb Phase, and Rockgrove’s Flame-Herald Bahsei during the Curse Phases

8. Pearls of Ehlnofey
The Mythic Pearls
The Pearls of Ehlnofey is a Mythic Set that comes with the Markarth DLC, after collecting the 5 Leads you will be able to craft it.
This set is one of the best Mythic Sets for a Healer if used correctly, while you need to make sure that your dominant resource is under 30% which is most likely Magicka.
This may be risky as you may need extra Magicka to deal with additional Mechanics, so make sure you have a Magicka Potion ready to pop during those times, once you are able to keep your dominant resource under 30% every healing ability you cast will generate 5 Ultimate which you can use to your advantage to get valuable Ultimates out faster, such as Barrier or War Horn.

7. Jorvuld’s Guidance

The Jorvuld’s Guidance is a Dungeon Set obtained from Scalecaller Peak that comes with the Dragon Bones DLC.
This set is unique because of its 5-piece bonus which increases the Duration of all Buffs and Damage Shields to everybody in your Group by 40%, this is essential when pairing with the Roaring Opportunist Set to maximize the Major Slayer Buff
t is also useful as a starter set for healers as it effectively utilizes a Healer’s Main Spammable which is Combat Prayer to increase Minor Berserk and Resolve, longer buff durations equal to less casts which is more resources to deal with other Mechanics.

To Further Maximize your Efficiency, if you are playing on PC and have access to Add-Ons, you want to get the Roaring Opportunist Add-On which provides you with timers to track the buff on your entire group, so you know exactly when to start heavy attacking.

4. Vestment of Olorime

The Vestment of Olorime set drops in the Cloudrest Trial which comes with the Summerset Chapter, it comes in Perfected and Non-Perfected Versions, the Perfected Version provides an additional Maximum Magicka Bonus.
This set provides one of the most essential group buffs in the game, Major Courage which increases your Groups Weapon and Spell Damage by a whopping 430 points, with the Olorime Set, this is applied by casting an AoE Skill, preferably on top of your groupmates to immediately apply the buff.
Preferably, you want this set to be active only on one of your bars as if you have it active all the time, you may accidentally cast a different AoE ability and you end up casting the circle on a wall or off a cliff, rendering the buff useless, with the set being active only on 1 bar, you can control where exactly you want the buff to go to.

This is the only Monster Set I highly recommend getting for any healer as you can never go wrong with pairing it with almost anything, it provides additional healing and sustain, regardless of if your group is stacked or scattered around in an area, as long as you can apply heals on them they will get sustain, this is essential especially if you are going to go for difficult Trials and Dungeons.

2. Hollowfang Thirst
The Signature Hollowfang Effect
The Hollowfang Thirst Set is a Dungeon Set that drops in Moongrave Fane which comes with the Scalebreaker DLC, it is one of the most popular healer sets and especially effective when your group has more Magicka DPS as it provides them with even more sustain.
The Set is probably the most versatile 5 Piece Set of all as you can pair it with almost anything and it will work well, even if your group is not all Magicka Based, as it will most likely help Tanks too with maintaining their resources and it also provides additional healing.
The uptime on this set is also great even though you need to critically heal or damage, with the amount of HoTs and Skills you cast, it will almost always proc every 9 seconds, the only downside is that you need to make sure your group understands that the exploding ball of blood is a buff though.

1. Spell Power Cure
The Faint Aura on the hands is Major Courage.
The Spell Power Cure Set is a Dungeon Set that drops in White-Gold Tower in the Imperial City DLC, it provides your group with the Major Courage Buff.
This is probably the best and most essential Healer Set in the game so work on getting this 5-piece set as soon as you can as it provides the much-needed Major Courage buff to your group as long as you can overheal them, you can apply the buff as long as your heals can reach your group, unlike Olorime which needs positioning.
To overheal your group easily, you’ll need to cast your Healing over time Skill on your group and cast your Combat Prayer at least twice, this will make sure your entire group gets the buff especially during trials.
It may take some time to get used to this as you need to constantly cast heals on the group at full health which may eat up your Magicka Pool, so make sure to space out your heals in the 5 second window, heavy attack and pop a potion when needed or when low.
- Name: Spell Power Cure
- Type: Dungeon
- Location: White-Gold Tower
- Requires DLC: Imperial City
- Style: Xivkyn
