Welcome to Goldceo.There is a Basic Healer Guide of 9Dragons for you.if you are interested in it .just look through.Hopefully the article can help you. I believe you will learn something from it.
Well I thought I'd give out some of my beliefs for a good healer character here on 9Dragons gold . Best healer character I have is an SM10 Strategy Beggar on Nirvana. He's definately not in the "high level players range" and I'll admit, I've got a lot to learn in almost all areas of the game.I hope any guidelines I give will be either supported or umm...debated(I don't want to say refuted, hurts my ego =P ) by experienced players reading this guide. It's pretty long, I try to make this guide usable even by first time players of 9Dragons gold .
Weapon
The default weapon for a healer is the secondary weapon of their clan. This means:
Heavenly Demon, Wutang, Shaolin, Beggars : Gloves
Brotherhood of Thieves: Axes
Sacred Flower: Dagger
There's a bit of discussion of which weapon a healer should use. Here's what the best of my knowledge presents:
1)Gloves damage stops rising at the same rate per level as other weapons at some point. Some users choose to switch to their primary weapon at this point to keep up the high damage.
2)Most Primary Weapons(Swords, Sabers, Wheels, Staffs, etc...) will do more maximum damage than Secondary Weapons, with the exception of Axes
3)Axes have the highest damage in the game but the least weapon balance, which means more external wounds
4)Gloves have the highest weapon balance, meaning very few external wounds.
I apologize for my lack of knowledge about daggers for you 9 Dragons Gold players. I believe that a healer is best off using their secondary weapon for the sake of the smashes you learn. I do not know if Daggers damage ever evens out like Glove does, but I know Axe doesn't. I think only glove users should consider switching at some point. They may want to use the primary weapon for grinding at higher levels.
Note: I used to grind with my active, and only one smash, throwing in the charged smash every now and then as well. Now, I grind by alternating my two best smashes while still throwing the charged in every now and then. It's been much better and I don't think I need to switch from using gloves any more. I'm quite happy now. Maybe you guys want to try this.
