Healing plays a pivotal role at every stage of the game in Raid Shadow Legends, from keeping your team alive early on to ensuring your champions can withstand tougher enemies later in the game. Healing can come in various forms, and understanding how it works and who does it best can be the difference between victory and defeat.
In this guide, we will explore the best healing champions in Raid Shadow Legends, starting with the Legendary and Mythical champions, before moving to the top-performing Epic champions. Whether you’re a newbie, mid-game player, or an experienced pro, this guide will help you identify the best healers to support your team. Before diving into the top healers, it’s essential to understand the different types of healing in the game!
3 Types of Healing in Raid Shadow Legends
- Direct Healing: This involves skills that directly restore a percentage of missing HP, which can be based on the healer’s Max HP, the target’s Max HP, or a fixed amount. Direct healing is immediate and reliable.
- Continuous Heal Buff: This buff restores HP based on the target’s Max HP at the start of their turn. Continuous Heal is a form of regeneration and works best in prolonged battles.
- Leech Debuff: While not a form of healing in the traditional sense, the Leech debuff heals champions by 18% of the damage they deal. However, it doesn’t work if the enemy has shields or an “Unkillable” status.
Top Mythical Healer Champions
Androc the Glorious
Androc the Glorious is the best mythical healer with a well-rounded kit. His Rock of Werinbur (A3) places Strengthen and Continuous Heal buffs on all allies, with an extra heal for those below 50% HP. His Radiant Claw (A2) further extends buffs, healing allies by 4% for every buff increased. This combination of heals and defense buffs ensures that Androc’s team stays healthy and protected.
Top Legendary Healer Champions
Marichka the Unbreakable
Marichka the Unbreakable, one of the strongest healers, stands out with her Font of Tenacity (A2) ability that fully restores destroyed Max HP, heals for 40% of her Max HP, places a Shield equal to 20% of her Max HP, and grants a protected Strengthen buff. This skill alone can bring a team back from the brink of defeat. Her healing capabilities make her an indispensable Void Legendary champion in almost every battle situation.
Wythir the Crowned
Known for her immense sustain, Wythir the Crowned’s healing kit includes a passive that places a Continuous Heal on the ally with the lowest HP every time she takes a turn. Her Azure Redeemer (A3) fully cleanses allies and heals for 30% of her Max HP. With additional increase defense buffs and the ability to activate Continuous Heals through her Feel No Pain (A2), Wythir ensures that your team can survive even the toughest encounters.
Riho Bonespear
While Riho Bonespear is more renowned for her debuff capabilities, her healing is equally impressive. Her Perfect Body (A3) cleanses all debuffs from allies, applies Block Debuffs, and heals by 35% of the ally’s Max HP, with an additional 5% per debuff removed. Riho excels at both protecting and sustaining her team. If you are looking for a healer and a debuffer champion for boss raiding, then Riho Bonespear is a great choice, especially for speed running Sand Devil dungeon!
Cardiel
Though often underrated, Cardiel can surprise players with his healing output. His Cow the Wicked (A1) heals allies by 7.5% of their Max HP, and his passive ability Fiend Warden allows him to join in ally attacks, which boosts healing frequency. With cleansing and revive-on-death capabilities, Cardiel is a reliable damage dealer and support champion.
Minaya
Minaya is a top-tier healer with her Beauty’s Allure (A3) that heals all allies for 40% of their Max HP and grants Block Debuffs. She also provides a shield if allies are fully healed. Her Mending Ways (A2) adds additional healing for her and the lowest HP ally, and her passive heals the whole team by 20% when she dies, making her an excellent choice for sustained healing.
Opardin Clanfather
Opardin Clanfather is a selfless team guardian, focusing solely on keeping his team alive. His Clan Mentor (A3) applies two Continuous Heals to all allies, supplemented by Rally the Tribe (A2) for additional healing. His passive accelerates turn meters for allies healed by Continuous Heal, creating a virtuous healing cycle. When synergized with Senna Amberheart, this combo grants extra turn meter increments per Continuous Heal buff, enabling your team to seize extended turn windows and unleash concentrated damage on tough bosses, notably in Demon Lord and Hydra Clan Boss battles.
Oella
Oella brings simple but powerful healing. Her Hand of Spring (A2) provides a 30% Max HP heal on a 3-turn cooldown, and her passive places a Continuous Heal buff when an ally loses 15% of their HP in a single hit, similar to Jareg’s passive ability. Unfortunately, her full potential is restricted when paired with Ultan of the Shell, who is not a popular champion.
Elva Autumnborn
Elva Autumnborn has a unique passive that heals her teammates by 10% of their Max HP whenever they take a turn. Additionally, Elva’s Scepter of Thriving (A1) consistently places Continuous Heal on the lowest HP ally. With her reliable healing and protection skills, she is often compared to Siphi, but many find her more consistent in healing. This makes Elva one of the best candidates in Hydra Clan Boss battles as she can heal her allies and restore their destroyed MAX HP with the aid of Miracle Heal blessing.
Siphi the Lost Bride
Siphi the Lost Bride, while not the strongest healer, brings consistent small heals that are enough to sustain most teams. Her Eternal Bond passive heals 10% of Max HP when champions take a turn, and her speed and turn-meter boosting from her Whirlwind Romance (A2) allow Siphi to support her team effectively in longer battles.
Top Epic Healer Champions
Demytha
Demytha is arguably the best Epic healer, though her kit might not seem healing-focused at first glance. Her Channel the Bloodline (A3) provides Block Damage and Continuous Heal, while her Light of the Deep (A2) extends buffs and removes debuffs, healing by 2.5% Max HP per buff or debuff altered. This can add up to a significant heal when there are multiple buffs or debuffs in play.
Rector Drath
Rector Drath is a consistent healer, offering a 20% Max HP heal with her Necro Mutation (A2) and applying Perfect Veil to fully healed allies, which further triggers her passive to heal by 10% Max HP when they start their turn. This makes her one of the best healers, particularly for new players. In addition, her Perfect Veil buff helps to reduce the AoE damage intake by her allies, allowing your squishy champions to survive in intense boss battles!
Vogoth
Vogoth, a distinctive healer, boasts a passive ability known as Eerie Presence that heals his team for 50% of the damage he absorbs (reduced to 25% against bosses). His true value shines against foes wielding potent AoE attacks, as he simultaneously mitigates massive damage while restoring his team’s health. This versatility renders him an excellent in a go-second Arena Defense Teams and a valuable asset in the Bommal the Dreadhorn Doom Tower boss raid. However, Vogoth’s Achilles’ heel is his lack of self-sustain mechanics, relying heavily on a Regeneration Set to replenish his health at the start of his turn. To prevent Vogoth’s downfall, ensure he’s paired with a reviver or additional support healer, as his limited self-healing capabilities leave him exposed to enemy attacks between turns.
Skytouched Shaman
Though her kit looks strange at first, Skytouched Shaman heals all allies by 50% of her missing HP at the start of her turn, while damaging herself by 10% Max HP. Building her with a large HP pool allows her to heal the team for significant amounts, but you’ll need another healer to keep her alive. It is recommended to equip her in Regeneration Set and Immortal Set to offset the self-damage to prevent her from succumbing to enemy attacks too early.
Woad-Painted
Woad-Painted underwent one of the biggest transformations in the game after a buff. Her Undying Fury (A2) heals herself for 100% of her Max HP, then heals all allies for 50% of the surplus. Building her with a high HP pool turns her into a formidable healer, capable of restoring large chunks of health to her entire team.
