Welcome to the Wand / Longbow PvP healer build guide! This weapon combination has the most healing abilities in Throne and Liberty with access to powerful Healing over Time (HoT) skills such as Healing Touch, Flash Wave, Purifying Touch, and Nature's Blessing.
With Swift Healing, Fountain of Life, and Clay's Salvation on Wand, this build takes on Priest or Cleric-like support roles that allows you to constantly heals unlike any other healer weapon combination in the game.
As exciting as it sounds to play this Wand / Longbow PvP build, players must keep in mind that you struggle with a lack of mobility which you notice more during small scale fights. This weapon combination has an easier time during mass PvP because you can position yourself safely within your zerg to greatly reduce the chances of being ambushed by a melee player. Despite this weapon combination's lack of mobility, you are still pretty tanky thanks to your passives, Distorted Sanctuary and Devoted Shield (no cooldown) that pair perfectly with active abilities like Invincible Wall and Blessed Barrier.
Besides smart ability usage and rotation, you need good positioning and field awareness to be an effective Wand / Longbow healer. Make sure to always pan your camera so you know what is going on around you and who may be potentially coming at you. With practice, you will become a difficult healer to kill vs most DPS players other than Greatsword / Dagger users who tend to be a challenge to fight against.

Skill Builds
Active Skills
Block Skills
- Both the Longbow and Wand blocks are beneficial for a Wand / Longbow healer. Use Chaotic Shield to gain access to an additional heal that also restores stamina to the target when Perfect Blocking Fury abilities. Both the standing and directional Perfect Blocks with Overtaker provide you with a mobility skill. The standing block also grants you a 410 Critical Hit buff for 5 seconds. The directional block guarantees your next skill Crits which works on your first cast of Swift Healing and Clay's Salvation.
Damage Skills
- Use Touch of Despair off cooldown on clumps being focused to ensure you keep full stacks of Full of Corruption at all times. The Max Damage increases your healing output.
Healing Skills
- You use Healing Touch off cooldown to apply the heal over time to your party members or maintain the HoT on a single target.
- Don't be afraid to use Fountain of Life to keep yourself alive. In many instances it is vital to survive when Knocked Down, or Prone.
- When using Nature's Blessing with the Vitality Specialization on targets with the buff from Healing Touch or Nature's Blessing, this skill fully heals most targets.
- Flash Wave is a very strong HoT, but also a strong offensive skill. Line up Flash Wave on your allies and enemies to apply a -300 Hit Debuff on enemies making them miss more often.
Utility Skills
- Cursed Nightmare and Karmic Haze are used together to mass Sleep enemy clumps and set up great plays for your group. Be mindful of your positioning as you approach an enemy clump to mass Sleep, especially if you become a known target.
- Use Blitz to reset Invincible Wall, Clay's Salvation, Fountain of Life, or in some instances Karmic Haze to spread Cursed Nightmare twice.
Passive Skills
- Devotion and Emptiness, Earth's Blessing, Saint's Oath, and Noble Revival increase your healing. Devotion and Emptiness also provides Cooldown Speed for your healing abilities during the day.
- Selfless Soul pairs really well with Fountain of Life, Clay's Salvation, Flash Wave, and Nature's Blessing to reach 5 stacks almost instantly.
- Wand/Longbow healers can achieve the highest possible Endurance in the game because of Distorted Sanctuary.
- Don't undervalue Devoted Shield. It is a powerful shield that has no Cooldown and gets activated multiple times throughout a fight despite its low percent chance.
- Full of Corruption increases your healing and Mana Regen. Maintain three stacks consistently by spreading Touch of Despair.
Alternatives
- If your party doesn't need a lot of healing or support, replace Blitz with Ensnaring Arrow to help CC targets. You can also equip Time for Punishment instead so when you spread Sleep with Karmic Haze, you also spread the Skill Damage Resistance Debuff.
Limit Break Purifying Cleanse
- Replace Karmic Haze and Cursed Nightmare with Purifying Touch and Time for Punishment with Enchanting Time. You also spec into Limit Break with this setup to have a full cleanse ability that gets rid of all CC and Debuffs on your target or a much stronger Flash Wave HoT. Cleansing a tank with Limit Break into Purifying Touch is especially helpful when they have 10-15 Debuffs on them that could lead to their quick death.
- Instead of Time for Punishment with Enchanting Time, you could also slot Deadly Marker to use strictly on Wand/SnS players first and then other SnS afterwards so they die quicker.
Full Healing and Support
Active Skills
- With this skill bar you do not need high Hit since you're only running heals and support abilities that can't miss. Since this build doesn't need high Hit, you can gear for high triple Endurances and focus on being more tanky against all three damage types. Endurance is a stat that always subtracts from an enemies Critical Hit. With Distorted Sanctuary, a Longbow user can build their Endurances the highest compared to any other weapon combination in the game making you a healer that is hard to kill.
- The best way to make use of Purifying Touch is to cleanse Stuns and Binds.
- Tornado is great to use as a peel or throw towards chokes to disrupt enemies and knock them into the air for 4 seconds. This allows your ranged DPS to freely cast on them. Be careful not to use this ability to ruin mass AoE sleeps from your allies.
Active Skills
Block Skills
- Both the Longbow and Wand blocks are beneficial for a Wand / Longbow healer. Use Chaotic Shield to gain access to an additional heal that also restores stamina to the target when Perfect Blocking Fury abilities.

- Prioritize getting all these skills to blue first before getting them to purple. These are universal skills you always use.
- Upgrade the rest of your skills as you play the game.
PvP Gameplay and Skill Rotation
Mass Sleep
- Cursed Nightmare
- Karmic Haze
- This is a very simple combo. Make sure your positioning is safe before you cast and you know where to safely reposition afterward.
- Always target a Wand / Longbow or SnS user with Cursed Nightmare, because they don't usually stack Evasions, so it's more likely your Sleep and Karmic Haze would not miss on them.
- After you cast Cursed Nightmare on a target, you must use Karmic Haze on that same target to spread Sleep.
- Note: The tooltip for Karmic Haze is incorrect and you can spread any DoT or Sleep to as many targets within skill's AoE radius.
AoE Heals
- Clay's Salvation
- Fountain of Life
- Nature's Blessing
- These are your AoE healing abilities commonly used in PvP. Use your AoE heals after multiple party members receive damage that requires your support. Use Swift Healing as your main heal until this happens.
- Fountain of Life is commonly used to support yourself to survive CC combos.
Single-Target Heal
- Swift Healing
- This is your main heal that has a low cooldown and can be cast up to three times with Consecutive Use.
HoT Heals
- Healing Touch
- Nature's Blessing
- Flash Wave
- Purifying Touch
- These are your healing over time (HoT) skills used in PvP which are enhanced by your Earth's Blessing passive.
- Purifying Touch only becomes a HoT if you take the Healing Touch Specialization.
- Healing Touch is what you spam the most to keep 3 stacks on your target. You can also split the HoT on two targets and maintain 3 stacks on both. However, this drains your mana quicker and should only be attempted during an intense fight where you need to heal yourself and an ally or two allies simultaneously.
- The full healing potential of Nature's Blessing is only activated on targets who already buffed by Healing Touch or a party member's Nature's Blessing.
Damage Mitigation
- Blessed Barrier
- Invincible Wall
- These skills help your party tank strong hitting abilities. Blessed Barrier and Invincible Wall can be changed into AoE abilities with Expand Targets and Expand Targets.
Nature's Blessing Full Heal
- Healing Touch or Nature's Blessing
- Nature's Blessing
or
- Nature's Blessing
- Blitz
- Nature's Blessing
- The Vitality Specialization amplifies the potency of your Nature's Blessing on targets who have the Healing Touch or Nature's Blessing HoT. You can take advantage of this in one of three ways. First, by casting Healing Touch, then following it up with Nature's Blessing to fully heal your target. Second, by coordinating with another Longbow user, having them cast either Healing Touch or Nature's Blessing which is then followed by your Nature's Blessing. Thirdly, you could use Nature's Blessing and reset it with Blitz to cast the enhanced Nature's Blessing yourself, healing all allies within range to full health.
- For Nature's Blessing, the other Longbow user must be in your party so your party mates receive the HoT.
- Note: It is strongly recommended that you get in voice comms to coordinate with other healers and keep your party alive.
Double Barrier Protection
- Blessed Barrier (target 1)
- Blitz
- Blessed Barrier (target 2)
- Swift Healing (split between both targets)
and/or - Clay's Salvation
- If there are two party members being focused that need help sustaining damage, you can reset Blessed Barrier with Blitz to apply it twice increasing their healing received and Defenses.
Curse Explosion
- Touch of Despair
- Ensnaring Arrow
- Decaying Touch (if target has two stacks of ToD)
- Touch of Despair
- Curse Explosion
- Blitz
- Curse Explosion
- This combo can one shot enemies above 20k Max Health with proper gear. If Ensnaring Arrow fails, use Cursed Nightmare. It's better to use Cursed Nightmare if you're up against a Ranged DPS player because they can cast abilities while Binded.
Tips
- To survive and play well as a Wand / Longbow Healer you must always be mindful of your positioning. Never be in isolated spaces within your zerg and always remain within 15 meters of your party members to ensure you are making full use of your Distorted Sanctuary.
- Do not use standing block against Greatswords. Always use rolling block in fights against them because they have two Fury abilities that can quickly Prone you if you're using your stationary block.
- Don't be afraid to use Blessed Barrier on yourself if you are being focused. The increased healing and Defenses from this ability increases your odds of surviving.
Stat Priorities
Use the following stat priorities when playing a Wand / Longbow build in PVP:
- Primary Stats
- Strength, Perception, and Wisdom
You have 49 Stat Points you can freely allocate to any of the 4 primary Stats. Once you put 20 points into an individual Stat, it takes 2 points to increase the Stat by 1. Do not put more than 20 points into a Stat unless you are trying to reach a certain breakpoint.
You get bonuses for every 10 Stat Points you invest from 30 to 60. You invest our points based on acquiring these bonuses.
Strength adds minimum and maximum Weapon Damage while also increasing your Max Health, Defenses, and Health Regen. Increasing Strength is your best method of increasing your survivability. Wisdom is the next best stat for healers. Each added point into Wisdom increases your maximum Weapon Damage and provides extra Cooldown Speed and Mana Regen.
Early Game Gear
In PvP, Hit is important to land your CC, Curses, and offensive abilities. So, with full green gear, you want 30 Perception for 100 extra Hit. You also want 30 Strength for 750 extra Max Health which improves your survivability, as well as 30 Dexterity for 100 Critical Hit which is about a 10% increased chance to Crit Heal or Damage.
Mid Game Gear
With Blue gear, your goal is to have high Max Health, Critical Chance, and a balance of your Endurances.
End Game Gear
At Purple Gear, you have options to either run a Triple Endurance build or a Melee Evasion build with smaller Ranged and Magic Endurances. What you choose to run depends largely on your server. If you're on a heavy Melee server, then a Melee Evasion build would possibly feel more beneficial. Servers with a higher amount of Magic users will require strong Magic Defenses and Damage Mitigation.
Gear Progression
Acquiring Gear pieces and upgrading them is incredibly expensive and time-consuming. If you enjoy both PvE and PvP content, just use these sets for PvE as well.
Note: Longbow should always be kept out in your main-hand, because the masteries for weapons ONLY WORK FOR THAT WEAPON. They never ever apply to the other weapon. Because of this, you should run whichever weapon gives you the best defensive stats while out to help mitigate damage thrown at you throughout fights.

Wand / Longbow PvP Build
Triple Endurance Focused Story Gear
Optimal blue gear is hard to trait early in the game launch. Green gear is much easier to trait offering better PvP gear for the early game.
Any Melee user who knows how to gear properly approaches 800 Melee Hit Early Game, especially Greatsword users. To effectively combat this, you need around 1,200 Melee Evasion for a 30% chance of evading their attacks. You barely achieve this as a Longbow Healer Early Game, so it's better to run the Triple Endurance build and achieve 708 Melee Endurance, 848 Ranged Endurance, and 778 Magic Endurance in a full party with Level 1 Distorted Sanctuary passive.
Remember, the great thing about Endurance is that no matter how much Critical Hit your enemy has, your Endurance is always subtracted against theirs.
Early PvP game for Wand / Longbow can feel rough against players who know how to gear. However, once you get into Mid Game and onwards, it feels much better and you have more gear paths you can explore.

Wand / Longbow Triple Endurances PvP Build
Unless you have this gear set somewhat traited, some of your Green Gear is still better for PvP. Keep that in mind before transferring over.

- This build achieves 994 Melee Endurance, 1,104 Ranged Endurance, and 974 Magic Endurance with a Level 3 Distorted Sanctuary.

- With this build, you achieve 30 Strength and 30 Perception. The remaining points you place in Wisdom for Mana Regen because Longbow healers struggle with Mana sustain in intense battles.
