Healer Renown Farming Guide

September 18th, 2008

From the moment you are born to the moment you die you learn something new every day. For me the lesson of the day was how to massively increase my renown gain from scenarios. Basically the deal is that healing is one of the best ways to get renown at the moment, if not the best. But when you are in a scenario you auto join the scenario warband, and when you are in a warband you share all xp and renown gains with the rest. Next time you join a scenario try opening the scenario warband menu and leaving the party going as a solo player. All that juicy healing renown is now yours, and yours alone. The best part is that you do not even have to live without the warband ui since you can still see the other parties without being in them. This allows you to heal just as if you were in a party, with the only exception being group heals and buffs. The first time I tried this my renown gain increased by a factor four compared to the previous attempt. Just remember to cast a few instant damage spells every now and then to get in on the kills for the kill player quests.

As a runepriest I cast a rune of restoration heal on a low hp player for 500hp heal and got 55 renown from that alone when I was solo. Rezzing is also a good tactic since this brings up a player in the need of some very big heals which again gives you good renown. Now is it good that healer will want to go solo I don’t really think so, but until Mythic changes any of this, if they ever do, this at least is a good way to get started on farming those 80 renown ranks.

A special thanks goes out to Whistler on Karak Eight Peaks for telling me I should try going solo healing in a scenario and check renown gain.
