The term "healer" refers to a Hero whose Special Skill replenish the health of others; at the higher levels they do more than solely heal. Healers are crucial to any viable Teams, especially against strong enemies who would otherwise kill the Heroes faster than they would be defeated themselves.
Quality Healers by Rarity[]
Below is a listing of (subjectively best) healers, sorted by rarity and element. The top choices in each category are in bold, with an asterisk*. Alternatively see complete listing Category:Healers, without sorting by rarity or recommendation (96 heroes as of January 2023).
Since healers are somewhat sparse, the table also includes two 3* defense buffing and damage sharing Heroes in parentheses denoted with a D. This is because damage absorbed thus is basically an insta-heal for the percentage of the buff, serving the same purpose as the healer.
The only 1-star healer is Sharan ( Fire
Ranger, provided to every Player at the beginning), the only 2-star Sha Ji (
Holy
Cleric).

Note 1: The list is largely unmaintained since 2019 and so likely to miss the newer Seasons, Events and Families. Speak up in the comments below if you disagree with any of the recommendations or miss a truly outstanding, top-tier Tanks.
Note 2: The recommendations for 4* and 5* best-in-class give heavy weight to scores provided by Anchor's Hero Grading Spreadsheet. While there are many possible healers, the key here is to have two of the "top tier" tanks listed for each element rarity and element.
