Re: healers get less points?
As a healer, you often stay in the second line of battle right behind Zerks, Tanks and Frosties and your score will be influenced by:
- How many kills the first line gets;
- Your ability to stay alive - blocking Zerks' or Inquisitors' powerattacks / activating Mana Powder so the Tank can keep the shield up for a long time.
If you manage to stay alive in the heat of the battle, you'll accumulate points with each enemy death. By personal experience, the ammount of points can be obtained by:
- Healing (LMButton) each person who damages the enemy (even if they have full HP);
- Restoration Healing (RMButton) each person who damages the enemy (even if they have full HP) - major score boost;
- Healing Powder activated;
- Mana Powder activated.
Other skills such as Sacrifice, Ressurection or Immunity may increase the ammount of points but i haven't tested/obtained them yet.
Conclusion:
- If your goal is to be topscore, make sure you Heal/Resto Heal every melee before every fight even if they have full HP (Not advisable since you will spend loads of mana and RestoHealing doesn't give CP which will delay the activation of Healing/Mana Powder);
- Keep your auras up all the time;
- As you level, you will get new skills which, when activated, increase the points on each "Support";
- If the orcs/frosties are getting most of the kills while you heal them and you manage to stay alive with your auras up, you will be topscore without even trying.
