UO Healing Skill Guide
Healing is one of the most essential support skills in Ultima Online for any melee or dexterity-based character. It allows the use of bandages to restore hit points, cure poison, and resurrect allies. Combined with Anatomy, it becomes a powerful tool for solo and group survival.
Healing is a support skill in Ultima Online, rated as Beginner difficulty to train. This guide walks you through everything you need to raise Healing from 0 to grandmaster, including the most efficient training methods, the targets and items to use at each skill range, and the gains you can expect along the way. Whether you are building your first character or optimizing a finished template, the breakdown below will help you train Healing as quickly and cheaply as possible.
Below you will find an overview of what Healing does, a step-by-step training guide, recommended skill ranges, any bonuses Healing provides, and the templates that pair well with it. If you would rather skip the grind, UO King can deliver a ready-made character or the gear you need to support a Healing build on your shard.
Skill gains occur by using bandages to heal damage, cure poison, or resurrect. Best trained alongside Anatomy for efficiency.
