[edit] Equipment

• High energy staff of enchanting.
• Runes of Vigor and Vitae.

[edit] Usage

• Maintain Unyielding Aura and end to resurrect people.
• Use Divine Healing and Heaven's Delight as party heals.
• Protect people with Shield of Absorption and Protective Spirit.
• Use Dismiss Conditions to remove conditions and as a heal on enchanted allies.

[edit] Variants

• Bring Seed of Life in place of Shield of Absorption.
• Drop one of the party heals for hex removal.
• Drop any of the skills, and lower Protection Prayers by 2 and invest 8 in Healing Prayers and bring Patient Spirit or Gift of Health.
• Remove hex stacks with Deny Hexes.
• Consider using Mend Ailment for heroes as they spam Dismiss Condition as long as they see a condition, resulting in a waste of energy.
