If you want to play a healer use a race that best fits with mana like high elf argonian or even a breton otherwise use a sorcerer class

I've been playing a nightblade healer. Lots of fun.

I am playing a high elf dual wield tempest sorcerer

Sorry for late reply I was sleeping

I like playing breton but I dont think sorc healer is newbie friendly? you are true form of breton, high elf and argonian tho. I do have a breton NB but not sure if I convert it to healer because its all in stam gear however I may want to get the beginner healer gear from scratch that synergise the NB healer?

@reaper whats high elf DW tempest sorc like? how are you faring?

I am faring pretty good due to my champion point distribution hey if you want to join me in-game sometime to see how my DW sorcerer plays out just add me @Emilia_DeathBringer on Eso NA server 😉

[Darkcymru]

I do quite frankly play on both so I will join when I am available

Well I play as forest elf girl (cos of deer like horns!) and I'm warden healer/ice mage. I can heal at dlc dungeons and dungeons II just fine. I never did other more hard content yet tho I focus on lvling and doing quests..

I guess technically every class could do healing as they can wear restoration staff and use it's skills but so far I found only 2 classes which are designed to heal others with their own skillset. It's Templar and Warden, I heard Necromant is also a healer but I dont have it so cannot try and see. Warden and Necro are must be bought tho, only templar is free for new players.

[Darkcymru]

I have eso plus and expandsions so I enjoy warden more so I go for warden healer

[JamuThatsWho]

Necro healer is loads of fun. It's my main PVE spec.

Templar is the most intuitive class for healers in my opinion

If you're starting out as a healer I agree that Templar is the best way to go. The class healing skills are strong and lots of HOTs which, if you have problems parsing, may help you.

[Darkcymru]

I'l try templar

[Lady_Galadhiel]

Templar and Warden are still meta healing classes,together with necro I belive now.
While I never played a templar healer,Warden is fun and easy.
My main character is sorcerer healer and for my playstyle it is the best option,not only that I can heal and support my team in dungeons and trials but I can almost swap on the go to dd and deal a decent dmg.
Currently trying out as a hybrid healer/dd with 2 suporter sets and one damage set,not doing crazy high dmg but as support dmg for most content good enough.

healing is easy, you don't need a race with extra healing, you don't need sets with extra healing and you sure as hell don't need skill that can only heal. tank has self heal and won't really need healing from you, dds have a minor healing skill usually so they don't need to be babysitted. only in the bosses' burst phase you need to spam heals. otherwise;

the entire point of a healer is buffs, buffs and more buffs.

armor? spc (gives damage buff on overheal), hollowfang (heals, gives mag, adds healing buff), rkguamz (restores all 3 resources).

bar setup? radiating regen and illustrious healing for hot (not direct heal), combat prayer for the damage buff, elemental blockade shock for the damage increase, elemental drain for the damage increase and mag restore, energy orb for the resource restore, aggressive horn for the dps increase.

cp tree? from the brink, enlivening overflow, hope infusion > any of the healing increase nodes

tl;dr - healer doesn't heal, healer buffs. heals aren't the thing you're focusing on, but they're a nice bonus to your buffing abilities. Thus, any race that has some magicka buff can be a healer and any class can be a healer.
