The Cleric Heavy-heal swap build in AION 2 (PvE, support) is played around Radiant Recovery, Light of Regeneration and Healing Light, with Absolution, Yustiel's Power, Benevolence and Light of Protection 20 as stigmas; stats in order: Combat Speed. From 4 player sources on Reddit and Inven (KR), updated Oct 17, 2026; every name checked against the client.
From Transcendence 2 and in sanctuary runs, some Clerics swap damage stigmas for healing ones and keep a second preset for it. The skill bar stays the same; the stigma bar becomes a safety kit.
Medium evidence: three Reddit threads argue both sides and one Korean guide from March. Others say you do not need healing stigmas at all and that full support is for mass PvP; the damage preset is the safer default.
Radiant Recovery — Cleanse and heal at once — use it when two or more people have debuffs. The client's level-12 option adds +10% Incoming Heal for 10 s.
Light of Regeneration — Heal over time, first for leveling in this build.
Healing Light — Single heal; its level-8 option gives two extra consecutive uses.
Condemnation — Keep it for the quiet moments so you are not only a healer.
Stigmas
AbsolutionEmergency heal; the client's level-5 option takes 30 s off the cooldown and level 10 removes all debuffs.
Yustiel's PowerBefore heavy hits: level 5 is a protective shield worth 10% Max HP.
SalvationA few seconds of invincibility on a 1-minute cooldown, per players; Korean guides want it for the Corroded Decontamination Facility sanctuary.
Gold numbers are past what skill points buy (level 10): the rest comes from Daevanion skill nodes, soul binding and arcana — how to get there.
Talents: skill specializations
What each level of the build's skills opens in the client — the options you pick at 8 (actives) and the ones that come at 12, 16 and the stigma levels.
Options and the levels that open them are the client's (SpecializedSkillParts); lit = reached at the level this build aims for (skill points buy up to 10, stigmas 20 — the rest are bonus levels).
Talents: Daevanion boards
All five boards with a computed build for this role already learned — lit nodes are taken. Then what players do on the boards.
Most skill levels: +35 skill levels · 88 nodes · 136 pts. Computed by us — again and again the cheapest path with the most of the goal per point, for the points levels give at the cap. Change it in the planner →
Gear for the Heavy-heal swap build
The Cleric's top pieces, and what this build wants rolled on each.
% = chance one soul binding gives that line on that piece — our calculation from the client's weights, as on the item pages. Skills listed are the ones this build raises past what points buy (Light of Regeneration, Radiant Recovery, Healing Light); stats are the ones it ranks. Gear Transfer moves good lines onto a better piece.
✦Do not drop the healing-zone stigma in public parties: bosses run away from it and dealers rarely stand in it (a Korean author's view).
✦A death log in Korea now shows when a dealer died unrevived, which is why Korean parties value the safety kit.
Common mistakes
✕A full support build outside mass PvP, where it loses damage and still cannot save a bad group.
✕Swapping to damage stigmas and then letting a dealer die — the Korean March author's warning.
Where this build comes from
Medium: players split between "damage first" and "heal more from Transcendence 2", each with experience to show; one Korean author from March keeps stigmas on safety only, while the September Korean guide pushes damage stats.
Read on Oct 17, 2026 on Reddit and Inven (KR); the words are ours. Every skill, stigma and stat named here exists in the global client 2.0.6.0 hotfix 1 — a name it does not have stops our build.

Put the debuffs, Earth Punishment and Condemnation on one macro row so a single key runs the engine, hold the basic attack Earth's Retribution on the other button, and keep heals by hand. Only one support stigma is usually needed; the rest of the stigma points go to damage and the party aura.
A Korean build that trades damage for survival: Shield Block high, a solo/party stigma swap, Defiance for the decisive moments and Radiant Recovery at 20. Players in Korea reached that setup in April, and by August the same community said Cleric PvP is the weakest of all classes.

Korea-only and thin: one April block guide, one August thread and two global replies that disagree on anti-crit versus block. Korea cut PvP damage by 30% on 14 Oct and the Cleric only got element damage. Treat these numbers as a Korean starting point.
