New World Best Healer Builds: Top 3 Life Staff Weapon Combos

As in any MMO, Healer characters quickly became necessary in New World parties to win battles. These characters do not just heal; they have also become the choice of many players because they can switch to offense or defense when needed. For this reason, players started researching the best healer guide and the 3 best weapons for Healers.

The Life Staff is the only weapon in New World that provides healing so far, so it will be different and special from every class. However, when paired with different primary weapons, it can greatly change players' playstyle. Considering that Healers need to play around themselves to be able to heal, it makes a lot of sense for Healers to prioritize close-range weapons.

Here is the New World Healer guide:

New World: The 3 Best Healer Weapon Builds

1. Hatchet and Life Staff

The Hatchet provides great life steal that lets players keep their health up and survive longer. This ability works perfectly with the Life Staff. Players with this build become very hard to kill, so they keep healing both themselves and their teammates.

2. Great Axe and Life Staff

As its name suggests, the Great Axe deals a large amount of damage and offers a wide area of effect, so it is very good at crowd control. It is also extremely easy to hit enemies with this weapon, and if there are multiple enemies at close range, several can be targeted at once. The Great Axe is a very good duo with the Life Staff because it lets Healers fend off incoming threats and quickly return to healing both their teammates and themselves.

3. Sword / Shield and Life Staff

The Sword & Shield lets players play defensively or offensively depending on the team's needs. This versatility goes well with the Life Staff because it lets Healers stay flexible and adapt at any moment. It also brings excellent defensive ability while letting Healers focus on healing their allies.
