It’s all about countering the healers and playing as a team instead of farming damage. You need bruisers and few light melee chasing healers for quick burst + maybe a musket guy 1 to 2 bows max and a mage. Some bb guy too. You can flank and bother them heavily + bursting people on the side of the clump. In this fast paced playstile we have atm burst damage it’s nuts and kills inside heals but when everyone does aoe damage in the clump for score = nothing happens.

So with July Perk Patch coming, I am sure they will buff Disease perks.
Hot Tip: They stated that weapon perks when place on a weapon will be greatly improved, so as such people should start looking at getting VGs with putrifying scream and BBs with plagued splitting grenade on the weapon themselves, as this will probably be BiS after July.

Did you see the post where some guy was trying to suggest if you ‘spam’ your abilities on rapier your cooldowns should incrementally get worse for it? Yeah how dare you riposte evade fleche. Here’s a 40 second cooldown.
Heh, 40 seconds? these people can’t counter one in 3s what makes them think they’ll improve in 40?
I respect this person right here for actually stinking up for healers. The amount of time i put into a healer for it for be run into the ground is sickening inhate how AGS run things they are just slow lazy people. Sorry but its true
Into the Void - Releases | New World
LIFE STAFF
The purpose of the Life Staff adjustments are to move some of the healing power into the light and medium equip loads while reducing some of the power of the tanky healing builds. We also want to make it easier to properly target and heal the correct group members.
- Reduced base healing by 20% across the board to account for the increase in healing from equip load
- Targeting Adjustments
- Normalized all targeted healing spells (and target lock-on) to have a max range of 25 meters.
- Added out of range targeted healing functionality:
- Group UI will change color when the target is out of range.
- If the target moves out of range, the spell will cancel instead of casting targeting yourself.
- Trying to cast a targeted heal on an out of range target will display a “target is out of range” notification.
- Fixed an issue where targeted heals activated by using the ability key would not perform a direct heal on the intended target.
- Sacred Ground
- Fixed an issue where the Life Staff Sacred Ground VFX and tooltip stated it lasted longer than the actual duration.
- Reduced the effectiveness of the Sacred Ground fortify perk from 3% - 15% to 3% - 10%.
- Reduced Holy Ground stamina and mana regeneration from 100% to 50%.
- Fixed an issue that allowed the healing from this skill to be stacked from multiple sources if they were using different ability upgrades.
- Splash of Light
- Increased the efficiency of Life Staff’s Splash of Light ability from 40% to 60%.
- Increased the efficiency of Splash of Light’s Shared Recovery Upgrade from 3% to 5%.
- Orb of Protection
- Fixed an issue where the Shared Protection effect was being refreshed by the healing applied by Protector’s Blessing.
- Mending Protection (Item Perk): This perk’s functionality has been changed. Instead of triggering if the target does not have any active buffs, it now triggers if the target healed by Orb of Protection is under 50% health.
- Light’s Embrace
- Increased the efficiency of Light’s Embrace Connection Upgrade from 1% to 2%.
- Passives
- Blessed (Item Perk): Reduced healing bonus effectiveness from a range of 10% - 30% to a range of 5% - 20%.
Would ya look at that. Kippp has been complaining about healers since Nov '21
Gems
- Amber Gem - Reduced the damage scaling obtained from the Amber Gem (Nature) when putting attributes into Focus by 20% to make healer’s secondary weapon a bit less powerful in terms of raw damage output for focus builds.
Lifestaff
- Sacred Protection passive changed to grant a 5% increased incoming healing efficiency to all group members. Used to grant additional max HP.
- Reduced effectiveness of Orb of protection Fortify from 15% → 10%
Now we wait patiently for these folks to find an excuse to claim Splash of Light is dominating.

There’s also Putrefying Scream.
Yea, its only -29% anti-healing now at 625. It use to be much stronger.
They could easily inverse the life staff abilities and make a dark staff. For good reason you could not equip them both at the same time. This would be a devastating weapon! <3
Or perhaps make an inverse gem, that does the same thing. I’m sure they would have to tweak the numbers down by a large % or it would be rediculous. But this would be relatively easy over adding a brand new weapon D:
Corrupted anti heals! 
Now that i’m thinking about it would make sense as a secondary weapon after all if it was tweaked properly for damage numbers,
Just shower thoughts.

A corrupted staff…?

Precisely! <3
They need to un-get-rid-of-it.
It was the most used AoE-antiheal skill in the game at a time when tons of people were complaining about how hard it was to kill healers. Then they got rid of it and buffed the output for light healers doing AoE heals.
Before I used to tell people “learn about rends, ccs and antiheal” so you can kill healers.
Now? Yeah… Just leave them to the blunderbois it’s not worth it. They made them able to avoid all damage during roots, got rid of the only thing that negated sacred ground, and nerfed everyone’s stamina regen (except for light armor guys with rapier who have multiple stamina generation methods) so you can still be kited forever and not get the use of your rends.
They don’t need to nerf the life staff, but they do need to buff or un-nerf the tools we used for killing healers.
Reverting the change to Nullifying Oblivion is #1
Dodging in Roots to take 0 damage, during the skills that were supposed to create a damage window is #2
Get rid of this dumb crap and if roots are still too powerful (they wont be), give them a longer cooldown.
