healer?

I would really like to play a healer but somehow I cant see it working here.

there is (life gain on hit) passives nodes and supp gems.You can heal yourself with them pretty well.

Btw skeletons and other dead enemies must stop heal your life after hit ,they just dont have fresh blood xD

Too bad, the isn't healer

Im suprised no one mentioned using totems....i have the passive to use 2 totems at the same time. They tick up party members pretty heavily in terms of health. This is as close to a "main healer" as your gonna get!

You cannot really play the EQ/WOW MMO role of "tank" or "healer" in POE. Though you can make your character exceptionally tanky or have tons of life-regen, if you'd like.

If you want to play support, that's an interesting character choice. I think you could. Grab conduit, grab aura radius, spread your attributes out to str/agi/dex and load up on useful auras for a party, then use your mana and attacks to generate charges. Enduring shout, power siphon and frenzy will all generate charges for your party, making them more tanky, faster-hitting and better at dealing spell damage. Combine such a build with summons (like zombies) for extra party health-padding or curses/debuffs for support, and you could be playing the role of "healer" - just in an indirect way.
