Healer

A class dedicated to healing, reviving, and protecting other players.

The Healer is Era's dedicated support class, built around crafting consumables and using bandages to patch up or revive teammates. Healers specialize in keeping other players alive and at full health since Minecraft’s natural healing regeneration is not in effect. 

Crafting Healer specific recipes and applying healing to others is the main source of Healer class XP.

General Mechanics

Bandage Healing

Bandage Healing works when a Healer clicks on an injured player with a Bandage. This starts a short mini-game for the Healer to complete, and finishing it successfully heals the injured player. To complete the mini game right click orange squares and left click red ones starting with the center and moving to the outside.

Note: While the mini-game should work, if you run into any issues preventing you from finishing the mini-game, usually resetting the mini-game by exiting and clicking the player again should resolve it. 

Revival

Revival works in a similar way to bandage healing but applies to downed players instead of merely injured ones. When a player takes damage that would remove their last heart, they are downed instead of dying outright. While downed, a player is:

• Forced into a sitting position

• Unable to get back up

• Limited to 1/4th normal walking speed

• Unable to jump

• Unable to attack

• Unable to interact with storage

Downed players also have their own separate health pool, which starts full and slowly "bleeds" out over 2 minutes, causing final death if it runs out. Downed players can still take damage from any normal source in the meantime, including fall damage, fire, drowning, explosions, effects, projectiles, and melee attacks.

Recovery

Recovery is a custom effect that acts as a slow form of Regeneration, restoring half a heart at a fixed interval rather than all at once.

• Recovery I: restores half a heart every 5 minutes

• Recovery II: restores half a heart every 2 minutes

• Recovery III: restores half a heart every 1 minute
