  • What do you guys think of Galvanize? Because sometimes when i use the tesla/electroburst combo the heals dont go off :/

  • yo bro u want to do arenas and stuff like that

  • heyy(: good video..... whats the best weapon to use as a healer because im a new healer and have no clue what to do....... if you want to add my character..... its BriannaxxMarie for any tips that you may have for a healer. thanks(:

  • electricity and sorcery healers, which one is best? I have tried both and like them both but just got to 40CR last night and want to start T2 normal, but would like to know if it is best to stay with lightning

  • @chuckyoo i was told sorcery was the best.. its tough my dad is a sorcery healer and i can never beat him and im an electricity healer

  • swap telsa ball and electroburst with galvanize and arc lightning. galvanize can instantly heal an entire group from half health to full. arc lightning is great for healing the tank or other team members around the target. the heal from bio cap. is equal to the last hit of ionic drain and arc lightning

  • awsome vid thanks heeps

  • what stats do you stack

  • We should talk I have some changes to dat load out

  • your a genius

  • I should use the Tesla ball

  • i just started my electric villian today and searching google does nothing and most people just do music gameplays. so i found this very helpful and when i reach level 30 in few days (dont take me long to rank up) ill let you know how it goes. my villian is riza hawkeye85.

  • Wats his name on psn or dcuo

  • add raider champion and trolley champ i want to ask some questions when your on about electricity powers cant ask here not on often and ill forget i put this.

  • you're talking way to fast man, slow the fuck down! :-) good vid tho.

  • What weapon should i use as healer??

  • i think i may start using tesla ball/electroburst now

  • wats the best healer weapon staff or duel pistol

  • do skill points matter? where should they go if they do? is there a preferred weapon by healers?

  • Thankkkkkssssss yyyyooooouuuuu :D

  • Hey AubDog. I made a Lightning healer that uses this loadout and I must say it works wonderfully. In alerts, it takes a LOT to kill anyone in the group. Everyone's health bars stay at at 75%. When I do the Tesla Ball/Electroburst combo, it barely takes any of my power and I can do it about 4-5 times in a row which makes my healing overly efficient XD Anyway, thanks for the great vid and loadout.

  • @TheZoroa Excellent! I'm very glad you found this video so helpful! Just keep in mind that this loadout isn't the absolute best for raids so you might have to change some things when you get to doing those.

  • @AubdogHD I alwso wanna thank you for the time u spent in making the video for us you are awesome thank you so much

  • @spiritcrshr No problem bro, glad it helped

  • sooooooooo how do i add yu on psn and DCUO??? lol

  • @ChiAura Haha well my psn friends list is currently full... but I usually play on my ice tank "Why Try" so feel free to add that character if you'd like.

  • i was thinking of making a lightning healer in pvp but do i need to wear pvp armor or the healer armor? btw great video!

  • @Skyun70 Well for 1v1 duels I think most healers prefer to wear the actual PvP armour... but I've heard that the restoration offered by T3 PvE armour is so good that some healers like to swap out a couple pieces of T3 PvP for T3 PvE in the PvP arenas to boost their healing output. Anything less than T3 isn't worth it though.

  • @AubdogHD Thanks for your time to make this video. its working great! i still need to get some skills but so far its working. Best Lightning Healer Loadout so far!

  • 2:42 THAT'S 35%?!? That is scary low. If I saw my hp drop that low I would panic. They need to buff that supercharge, bump that 35% effect to below 55%.

  • what did you use to record this? it's amazing.

  • @aznxCOOLxguy I record all of my game footage with a happauge HD PVR

  • Dps*

  • That's really awesome. Thanks!! How bout a dos load out?

  • great vid! just started playing a electric healer and i gotta say this was VERY helpful!!

  • Thanks man, I love the lightning strike big time. But I suck as a healer, so im going to try your moves and see how it gose.

  • Hey Aubdog, do you think that Galvanize it's better than Electroburst? Cause I really like your loadout, but maybe galvanize it's better isn't?

  • @Clarknr Well in my opinion Galvanize is one of the two best raid powers for a lightning healer. The thing about this particular loadout is that its meant to be useable for PvP, Duos, Alerts, Raids, Dueling and pretty much everything else so galvanize wasn't a good choice for it in my opinion

  • do you have to start a new character to use the powers

  • How did you get your character to have that chrome color?

  • i like using arc lightning in the open world for massive ranged group heals.

  • Yeah dat helped me out thks

  • What are those wings called?

  • I think you got the list in the description back to front, you state Invigorate as being on the left, but on your loadout it's the R2+ Triangle. Great sounding loadout, I've just become a lightning healer (now level 21) and I'm gonna try out this loadout.

  • Hey thanks a lot dude this was most helpfull! :)

  • great video

  • im thinkin about respecin from nature heal to lightning heal but every1 says this is no good idea.. lighting heal is always OOM and such things.

    what do say? i mean, i heal not bad with nature but the effects looks like crap (natures got worst effects of all powers) and ive to turn into insectoid to get maximum healin capability. this kind of sucks bad

  • @DrLeiwand Yeah nature healing is still the best in my opinion but lightning healing isn't too bad. Its on par with sorcery as far as I'm concerned. I don't know if I could recommend the switch, but if you're wondering how the healing works you should think of it as the big numbers offered by sorcery healing combined with the the target specific heals offered by nature. Generally lightning healing is great... as long as you don't get interrupted or stunned

  • Great video! This is helping my buddy alot. I have one question though. I'm not a lightning user. To use the Tesla Blast with Electroburst, don't you have to fire at alot of different enemies to get maximum effect? Tesla Blast is a single target power, right?

    Btw- I love Handblaster's Pulse beam. It rakes up huge hit chains and generates power quick.

  • @ArgentM1 Yup you are 100% correct. The reason that I'm starting to prefer Tesla Blast to Tesla Ball is because its lower power cost and quick cooldown make it a lot more useful in boss fights, duels and sometimes pvp arenas. It also saves you a couple power points. Tesla Ball is still good and I do use it sometimes in places like the Batcave where there are large groups spawning from one direction - but otherwise I mainly use Tesla Blast.

  • lvled a tank and troller and now i just started making a sourcery healer (only lvl 9) and was wondering which is more fun to play as, sorc heals or electricity heals? havent thad the chance to try elect since i dont have the dlc yet

  • @surdect To be honest I haven't played as a sorcery healer so I can't say. Lightning healing is fun though. It kind of combines the high number heals you get with sorcery with the target specific healing offered by nature. It also looks cooler (in my opinion anyways) :P

  • @AubdogHD hmm thanks for the info :) will be getting dlc soon, and on a side note, i think that electricity should be a troller roll and hard light a tank roll, it just makes more sense to me that way but just my two cents

  • I think to get ur cr up u need to do alerts and all missions u can do.

  • where did you get your armor i see alot of people with it but idk how to get it please help me

  • @TheAverageGamer401 The back piece is a style item you can buy in the in-game marketplace. The legs are from the cyborg skin type that can be bought from a vendor found near Star Labs in Metropolis (if you're a hero) or a vendor near the Ace Chemical Plant in Gotham (if you're a villain). The chest is Egyptian style, the shoulders Paramilitary, the head is Cyborg and I believe the hands are Tech Ninja style but I can't quite remember. Almost all of it was looted from story missions or the vault

  • Do you still use this loadout? or have you changed it?

  • @TheAbyssro I started to swap out Tesla Ball for Tesla Blast and made a few other small changes. I think this video gives a good starting point to base your lightning healer off of but I intend to make a video in the future with some alternative loadouts.

  • damn that telsa ball to the stomp thingy was smart.

    I used the 1t telsa blast move yu get tu the stomp BUT TELSA BLAST IS WAY BETTER!!!!

  • OMG! I got a whole armor pvp suit and sitll my combat rating is only 28! Help me please! This is killing me

  • @jacklanting The absolute best PvP armor all has an item level of 30. Your combat rating is determined by a formula that calculates your total AVERAGE item level, although certain pieces like the chest and legs are weighted more heavily. Your combat rating is used exclusively for PvE and so because of that you have to get PvE armor to raise your rating. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, good luck out there!

  • the power combo was nice idea.

  • Thanks for the tips man!!

  • wat weapons r gd for being a healer dis game is comfusing as hell im still learnin haha

  • Glavanize is the best healer power!

  • Do you have any advice for leveling with this? Such as what attacks to use until we get into group play? Also, thanks for the video. It was very helpful.

  • Ppl who dislike this arnt healers so fuck off

  • @Sherando2014 Shut the fuck up.

  • Thx dude! I really needed this!

  • tnx for this it really helped ne alot. umm i have a few questions first is there a respec token for this dlc next wer did u get those wings and lastly can u make a dps loadout

  • @AEchaoslord I'm not sure if there are respec tokens, I think I heard somewhere that there are but I can't say for sure. I made this character from scratch. The back piece is a style item that can only be bought with real life currency in the game's marketplace. Again sorry to disappoint but I haven't played enough as a dps to make a useful video that I can guarentee would be as useful as this one

  • dude i just saw you and a bunch of your league members lol

  • nice vid man

  • Hi there! What kind of armor style is that, im interested about the back part of the armor.

    If some1 can give me the information i be very thankful.

    Besides very cool loadout. Best guide to do lightning healing.

    U shoud show some DPS loadout too.

  • @RIO85ful Well to answer your question the back piece is a style item that can only be bought in the marketplace, and I'm glad you found the video useful. Unfortunately I don't have much experience lightning dps-ing so I can't be of much help as far as that goes. Sorry!

  • awesome video helps a lot especialy if u dont want 2 be respec all time i was looking more for a pvp loadout dps /healer but i think this load can help pvp 2

  • I'm a nature healer, Electric looks alot more diverse I think, like they've polished off some of natures flaws with the HoT's, think i'll have to repec and try it out, :)

  • Perfect video

  • lmao december 10 2012...HE IS IN THE FUTURE!! XD

  • @Smo0thi333 HAHAHA how are you the first person to have noticed that??

  • @Smo0thi333 oh... i just noticed that!

  • Nice. Will have to respec and try the tesla...that is alot of power consuption though. It better heal more than just the tank for that kind of power consuption....Very nice video though....

  • Hey man, can you tell me what kind of armors and weapons you got because I want to get a combat rating of 53 so i can get into Central city. I really want to go the flash and stuff. Thank you so much for this video as well!

  • @jacklanting Well the best way to get your combat rating up is to get it high enough to do raids. Raid gear combined with Mark of Distinction gear will get your combat rating up to 53 if you buy the right pieces

  • @AubdogHD Is Shroud of Anubis armor good? It is from influenze points. so far I got 2 pieces and every 2 levels I get another piece until full. Then, when I get my this character to level 30, I will already have the full piece! Right now I am level 19. next piece is at level 21.

  • Excellent video!!! I've used the same setup

  • @AubdogHD what skill sets was you using for a damage role? I'm know as Thunderstorm5 on DCUO on PS3

  • @stevequannum With this loadout when I cycle to dps I use Tesla Blast (or Tesla Ball), Electroburst, Electrogenesis, Overcharge (I think thats what its called), Bio-Capacitator and Invigorate. Needless to say the cycle to dps sucks, :P

  • Dude, honestly this is the Video that I have been looking for since lightning came out... Great Vid.. make more :) I'm subscribing

  • @beamongary9 Awesome :) I can't promise a ton of dcuo stuff but once I start making videos again there should be at least 1 dcuo upload per week

  • hey i just want to say thanks for making this video it helped me to learn . :)

  • @ZoyitaBlade No problem, good luck out there!

  • great vid.... i use a similar loadout but instead of tesla ball i use wired... in the times i've used tesla ball.. it wont electrify bosses which is normally where i use it most... it will just do some damage... wired as we all know buffs group members and their attacks will electrify then all i have to do is run up hit electroburst and run out...

  • @TroyMusic121 Yup, I totally would have wired in this loadout but it just wasn't reliable for raids and so it wouldn't really fit in to this whole "one-size-fits-all" theme. For groups of 4 wired is pretty boss. If you want to, try swapping out wired for Tesla Blast (not ball), it frees up a few more power points and it lets you target EXACTLY where you want the heal to go... and so far it electrifies 100% of the time

  • i love this build after testin it the healin route it gives is awsome but for a probably dumb question do u have any recommendation on weapons im tryin a rifle mostly because the knockbacks but do u think theres lik a "best" healer weapon

  • @ConAirAmvs Hey, glad it helped! The best healer weapon is either Dual Pistol (if you're into hardcore healing) or Bow (if you want to do a bit more damage). The reason for this is because you regenerate power faster when you have a high hit combo - and since both the Bow and Dual Pistol have really fast attacks they build up your combo counter faster than other weps and thus you're able to regen power at a faster rate.

    And of course Duel Wield is the best close range melee choice :)

  • @AubdogHD ty thats wat i was leaning towards i was tryin a hand blaster with the restoration buff from dual pistols but i liked it but was kinda having issues with regen on my powers

  • @AubdogHD p.s. are you thinking about a dps build?

  • @ConAirAmvs I haven't played as a lightning dps very much so unfortunately I can't, sorry!

  • dude i love u lol no homo! but now i just need to get better gear. do u know where to get gear to raise my combat rating??

  • @TheInfamous292 If you get the blue gear from Hall of Doom Magic Wing vendor (costs around 300 cash and 1 Mark of Triumph a piece, so you'll need around 10 Marks of Triumph). With that gear you'll be ready for the Duos, the first few T1 Alerts and Challenge Mode solo missions.

    So after doing those for a while you'll start stacking up more Marks of Triumph and you can buy the Healer gear from Brother Blood in the Magic Wing. Also with Influence you can get Healer gear in the Magic Wing.

  • @aubdoghd thanks for clearing that. Hope to see you in game

  • Thank you everybody for all the love, good luck with your lightning healing!

  • @AubdogHD Hey i have to say that this is the BEST video help i have seen. I wanted to know your opinion on something. instead of getting electroburst, arclightning, tesla ball and nanoweave armor why not try moving those points down the amp side to attract, electrostatic bomb, electrocute (this is the power that create the lightning storm aoe) and galvanize? i know you said galvanize is more raid. For the loadout invigorate biocapacitor galvanize ionicdrain electrogenesis tesla blast.

  • @igneelchopper Thanks! I'm glad the video helped! Now to answer your question, the thing is that with that loadout you're buying a bunch of powers that you won't be able to use as a healer. That amperage tree loadout might be good for a high skill-point dps/heal hybrid because you buy a lot of dps powers on the way to galvanize, but for someone who wants to focus on straight healing this loadout is a fair bit better. I hope this answered your question!

  • Thanks. Your WICKED!!! :D

  • And here I thought my Healing build was good enough. I stand corrected since this build kicked the shit out of my build. A huge thanks to you and your build!

  • @ValkyrielOfficial Haha awesome! I'm glad it helped

  • Great video. You are a master healer.

  • Finally someone who knows what they are talking about.

  • This video is soo helpful! Thanks!

  • Thanks definitely helped

  • Hey im actually playing as a pvp lightning healer. I understand that a healers dps little as it may be should come from their weapons mostly, but I was wondering how much does tesla cost power wise? and do you think its dps (and its electrify aspect) is worth it? i only question it because as a pvp healer I always need to conserve power, But i just love the stuns, the damage is atleast decent (for a healer) and i need a new skill to electrify people. Thanks

  • @FFvaan92 Great question! Well I'm also really in to pvp and I use the Tesla ball combination when people are around 75% health and if I have about 75% power. Recently I've swapped out Tesla Ball for Tesla Blast because of the targeted heals, debuffs and its lower power cost (its better for dueling too). If you buy Tesla Blast and electroburst, but not Arc Lightning and Tesla Ball, you can put the 2 points you save in to crit atk chance and crit magnitude. If thats unclear, message me :)

  • @AubdogHD nope completely clear, haha thanks a lot still trying to find out all the game mechanics and everything. seem to be fine 1v1 with just about everything (with the exception of people who out gear me) except for lantern powers which seems to be pretty OP haha. Anyways yeah thanks again!

  • I dont get why but some of my powers refuse to go on my loadout, I put them on then they dont appear and I can't use the powers at all. Example front flip, backflip attack, fireburst & snuff out.

  • @GingerKibble I'm sorry but I have no idea what the problem is, I've never dealt with that glitch before :/

  • teslaball is stupid not for a healer the wep enchant is much better adds damage to group and does same effect when you or group mate attacks

  • @finkalo The "weapon enchantment" is unreliable. When you use the Tesla ball not only do you stun everything within its range, but you also control exactly where you want the heals to be. In a raid the weapon enchantment randomly selects 4 people to get the buff, so you're never sure who is going to get it and who won't. Also the weapon enchantment doesn't electrify immediately which is another major downside. Basically its unreliable and Tesla Ball is far more versatile.

  • Why isn't Arc Lightning in your load out?

  • @divinedragon07 Well the power cost is too high for the heal output it gives, the heal itself is unreliable (you're never entirely sure who it will reach) unless in a raid or a large pvp situation and on top of that there is no self heal. Arc lightning is decent in raids if used properly, but if used incorrectly it will wind up doing more damage than healing, and that would be a waste of power and casting time.

  • thanks for the explaining of the Burst Skill i never knew wat it did know that i do i can Make a pretty nice heal char Thanks man ^^

  • @TheUnitedStory Hey no problem, hope it works out for you too!

  • Great video man. Helped out alot!

    -Bruce

  • @DCfan4life Glad to hear it!

  • whats your twitter user name

  • @ahi12345678 AubdogHD

  • Whats the electric power that summons a cloud with bolts of lightning

  • @ahi12345678 Sorry but I'm not sure, I haven't spent much time dps-ing

  • @ahi12345678 I want to know that same answer too

  • I have been using your load out for both pvp/pve ... simply the best of abilities

  • @copyleftdev Hey thats great! Glad it worked well for you too

  • Thank you this helped a lot

  • @kingreo17 Glad to hear it!

  • hey men, is electricity a good power for healing role? I mean is better or at the same range like power as nature or sorcery? cheers!

  • @seiya209 I think lightning healing is quite good. In my opinion its definitely better than sorcery since the heals have a more versatile range; however I do think that Nature healing is on par with (or perhaps better) than lightning.

  • i understand why you use those last two powers, but is it really a viable option for raids? i mean, the AoE of that stomp is quite small, and also your teammates have to be close to the enemies to get healed aswell. also why dont you use the power underneath bio capacitor? whats so bad about that? :p

  • @rabidwolf77 Well not to be rude but in the description of this video (and in the video itself) I stated that this is a general loadout and that re-speccing for raids or pvp might be necessary to perform at one's absolute best in those instances. Galvanize is a decent power however its range is too small and its power cost is quite high so it isn't useful for anything except raids. Hopefully this makes sense :)

  • @AubdogHD ah my bad. i heard the respec for pvp, but for some reason i chose not to hear respec for raids :P I mainly focus on raids so thats why my focus was on that. thanks :)

  • How do you get those wings?

  • @BeastModeBoy123 They're from the marketplace. You have to buy them for real life cash

  • i'd love to play dcuo with you. my highest level character is 21.

  • @o0XpainX0o sure no problem, add "Atomic Hobo" or "Tesla Construct" in game and if you want to run an alert or need help with something send me a message :)

  • Make a electric dps vid plz thx beast vid btw

  • @wiitoy500 Thanks! Unfortunately I don't have as much experience as a lightning dps so I can't help out there yet

  • @AubdogHD sorry I'm SPEEDSTERFLASH lev30 healer with electric powers

  • @donee33 Sure, I'll add your healer on my ice tank. My lightning character is named Tesla Construct and my ice tank is Atomic Hobo if you want to add either of them

  • @AubdogHD thank you for the info and if u have a ps3 add me I'm SPEEDSTERF

  • @AubdogHD I also have a problem with power because when I am using this load out I am only dealing like 12-30 damage even though I'm lev 30 so is there a load out I could use that combines healing and power into one load out?

  • @donee33 Well you should remember that as a healer your damage output is reduced. On top of that your healer-specific gear will generally give less bonuses to might and precision and if your character is new the quality of the gear you have probably isn't as good. If you truly want to be a good healer you have to focus on healing first and then consider any damage you do on top of that to be a bonus.

  • great guide.. can u do lightning dps next?

  • realy nice video!! and thanks for such profund explications!(about all loads and how and when to use them).Great video!

  • @metruk88 Thanks a lot! Glad you found it useful!

  • I love this load out but I can't seem to get my restoration up

  • @donee33 Yeah there really isn't much healer specific gear in the beginning missions. If your resto is low and its giving you trouble run the Ace Chemicals alert and do all your duos because they're easy and they occasionally drop some decent stuff. Also put your skill points in to the dual pistol, dual wield and martial arts weapons trees (in that order) because they offer resto boosts at the bottom :)

  • i just saw ur video and imma try this loadout, i'll let u know how it goes =]

  • @jouninkakashi29 Please do, hopefully it works well for you too :)

  • Yo this video is good. Thanx for posting this my dude. My hero is level 22 and I wasn't sure what powers were good together for healing. Thanx

  • @Bigtank324 No problem, glad this helped you out!

  • thnks for this , been looking for a good loadout.

  • is this a dlc worth buying or is the light one more better

  • @audric20051 I really enjoy using the lightning powers but unfortunately I didn't make a hard light character so I couldn't say. In my opinion the content in both is pretty fun so I'd say they have equal value.

  • Ty so much as a new player who rolled Electric your video was very helpful I noticed a big jump in my heals after watching it :)

  • @Jazzaar Awesome! Very glad to have helped :)

  • Thank you everyone for all the thumbs-ups! This has been my most well-received video to date :D

  • im working on my lightning healer now lv11 lol

  • @Catalyst825 Nice! Good luck. Stick to this loadout and you'll do great
