Yes, I know Monks can heal for higher. Yes, I know most people prefer monks. I want to try with Ele though, and I know some people have done it before ..

So, if anyone has advice or anything helpful to say, post away.

Try this:

16 energy storage,
12 healing,
3 protection,

Ether Prodigy (elite)
Heal party,
Healing breeze,
Heal Other,
Extingiush,
Convert Hexes,
Glyph of Essense,
Ressurection Chant.

Use Glyph of essense with ressurection chant to ressurrect someone (make sure you are under ether prodigy to keep 10 energy regen pips and spam the other healing spells. There's not really any way to heal yourself apart from heal party and healing breeze, if you are low on hp and high energy and ether prodigy is about to end, use glyph of essense and a spell to remove all energy.

It cannot outheal spike damage, but an elementalist/monk never will be able to do that without divine favour

Not bad. Except I would drop Extinguish for Draw if you have decent tanks, in PvE. And perhaps Convert Hexes with something else, but I don't know what. Maybe not.

Personally, I might opt to replace Breeze with Jamei's Gaze for more reliable healing. The downside to this is that you'd need to rely on your monks for most of your healing needs, so I guess it's a bit of a toss-up.

Other than that, nice build.

Other than that, nice build. Breeze heals for more, but I think, by your comment, you already know?

Technically yes, it heals for more with a 20% enchanting mod (without it, the difference is negligible). However, that healing is spread out over 12 seconds, versus 1 second with Other/Gaze. Breeze is fine for combatting pressure, but in my experience as a monk, most of the time when people need single-target healing they need it now, not 12 seconds from now; even 1 second can be too long to wait. This build already has Heal Party, Convert Hexes, and Extinguish to counter pressure, so that doesn't seem to be much of an issue. Having two strong single-target heals would make it more resilient against spiking. But like I said, this makes the character a bit more vulnerable by having to rely on others for self-healing. Since this character can't truly replace a pure healer monk or boon prot, it seems like a foregone conclusion that you'll need some monk support regardless, so I think you could go either way with this.

Healing breeze is a good skill as you said for combating pressure, I'm fairly sure the OP wanted this for PvE, not PvP, it is rare for there to be huge amounts of pressure on 1 person. Healing breeze is good to precast when there are one or two characters at about 90% hit points.

If this was PvP and I was the solo healer, I would most likely switch out healing breeze for protective spirit.

I've written up a mini guide on this site before, I got a full E/Mo healing guide on another site... don't think I can link that one.

note: this is PvE

Attributes:

12+1+3 Energy Storage

Jamei's Gaze
Heal Other
Healing Seed
Healing Breeze
Heal Area
Heal Party
Rebirth

Healing Breeze isn't that bad when you have a 20% enchant mod, it works quite nicely. Healing Seed is awesome for protecting, really good for anti pressure. I've solo healed all Prophecies missions with this (granted, had guild parties all the time). Jamei's + Heal Other is awesome to spam, and the closest you'll get to spike healing.
