Healing Breeze:
Is an enchantment
Costs 10 energy
In a not so useful attribute for a Warrior

Troll Unguent:
Lasts longer
Can't be removed
Takes longer to apply and recharge
In an attribute line that has more useful skills than Healing Prayers.

Both really shouldn't be used as self-heals for Warriors anyway, since they take too long to provide enough benefit and both can be shutdown too easily.

That's why a smart Warrior would bring Mending! /fail

Or Lion's Comfort? >_>

One thinks he's clever, while the other thinks he's a tank. Both are terrible.

Lion's comfort or heal sig ftw.

Warriors shouldn't use either one.

Healing Breeze is an enchantment. Even in RA, this means you risk getting it shattered, drained, stripped, or inspired. Removed, making you waste 10 energy using it, and getting little benefit out of it based on how long it takes to get it removed. Plus, to get the regen up to a decent level, you will be investing a decent amount of attributes in Healing Prayers, and the only other skill in that line that may be useful to a warrior in PvP is Cure Hex.

Troll Unguent is slightly better in the fact that it can't be removed once you use it and its attribute has skills that may be useful to a warrior. However, 3 seconds to use it means you are doing nothing for 3 seconds, and anyone with an interrupt can laugh at you.

Healing Breeze and Troll Unguent are not self heals either, which is what you asked about. They are health regen skills, not heals. Regen is nice when dealing with small damage over time, or degen like bleeding, poison, hexes, etc. But a straight heal is faster and more efficient and reliable. Lion's Comfort and Healing Signet both do the job needed, and are both in warrior attributes that you should be using for a PvP build. Neither cost energy, so they are easy for a warrior to use.

If you use a W/Mo, your best Monk skills to use would be Mending Touch and a hex removal skill. Blind and Cripple will hurt your ability to kill things, and hexes can do damage to you or eliminate your threat. If you go W/R, Antidote Signet will be your best option for dealing with those nasty conditions.

my only reason for asking is im tired of hearing sh*t for using hb, by another warrior who turns around and uses troll unguent in the same game.

me personally, i must have a self heal. i cannot trust the monks in RA if we even get one, or run round without one. and i dont use tactics so screw it ill throw the extra points in healing and do me. im not lacking anything on my bar either, ive got my spike & condition removal or res sig.

i dont have nightfall so lions comfort is not an option.

yea by self heal i mean health regen or whatever.

Energy regeneration, on one player, no matter which form it's in, is a horrible insufficient way of healing. I've seen about 19 mending/healing breeze luxon wammo's in AB today because of the weekend, and needless to say they died swiftly with no energy to spam frenzy. Health regeneration, in most cases, sucks. It sucks. IT SUCKS!

The only self-heal you should be using on a warrior is either [lion's comfort], or the [vital boon]+[signet of pious light] combo also works very well. Healing signet's worthless just because there are no good tactics skills.

If you are investing in Healing Prayers and want a self heal, then the best option is probably [signet of rejuvenation]. I only say this because it has no energy cost. There is no good reason to invest in Healing Prayers though, so I do not recommend it.

What about Necromancer options? He could transfer his conditions and possibly have a decent health steal for cheap.

[Plague Touch][Blood Renewal][Life Transfer][Vampiric Spirit] (VS is "Steal up to 5...41...50 Health from target foe. For 10 seconds, you have +5...9...10 Health regeneration. ")

Wasting an Elite slot for a "heal" is not a very good idea...

Well that's if they needed a heal. Incompetent monks are incompetent in RA. :X

Don't bring a self heal in RA with a non support profession. It's a waste of skill slots, ones that will potentially boost your damage output. And if there's no monk or rit, you're probably going to die anyways, regardless of having a self heal or not. Most victories come out of a monk/rit being on your team.

Terrible advice. All RA builds need/should have a reliable self heal and some utility (not just all amage), or a TON of spike damage to kill foes before you have a chnce to die (mostly sin, paragon, or ranger builds). Because many times you won't have a healer. But that is no excuse to give up. I've won over 10 games in a row in RA multiple times with no healer. You don't need a great team with a healer to suceed in RA. You just have to beat the other 80% of players who are idiots in RA.
