Summary of Cure Spells

A chart on the efficiency of the different single-target healing spells

The following table summarizes the Divine spells for healing available on the Cleric spell list in DDO.

	#d6+2	Max level mod	Avg healing	Spell Points	Avg healing per SP
Cure Light Wounds	1	5	10.5	6	1.75
Close Wounds	0.5	5	7	8	0.875
Cure Moderate Wounds	2	10	21	8	2.625
Cure Serious Wounds	3	15	31.5	12	2.625
Cure Critical Wounds	4	20	42	20	2.1
Cure Light Wounds, Mass	1	25	25.5	25	1.02
Cure Moderate Wounds, Mass	2	30	31	35	0.89
Cure Serious Wounds, Mass	3	35	36.5	40	0.91
Cure Critical Wounds, Mass	4	40	42	45	0.93
Heal	-	15	150	40	3.75
Heal, Mass	-	25	200	50	4

Notes:

• Level bonus is calculated for caster level 20 even for spells which go above 20
• Healing spells use loaded dice compared to PnP, so the average of a d8 is actually the average of 1d6+2 = 5.5. The ingame descriptions are correct.
• Average healing per sp is calculated for a single target. Mass healing spells will be much more efficient when they hit multiple targets.

Bonus to Healing

How much a target is healed depends on four factors:

Your Positive Energy Spell Power is treated like any other spell for the effects of Spell Power - each point increases the healing done by 1%. Heal and Heal, Mass only get half benefit from this.

Any active metamagics stack additively with other sources of Spell Power, as their descriptions state.

Healing output is also affected by the target's Healing Amplification, which stacks multiplicatively.

Finally, if the healing spell crits, healing output is multiplied by two. The chance to crit is increased by certain feats, enhancements, and Healing Lore items.

To summarize:

(healing spell roll) * (1 + spell power/100) * (1 + target healing amp) * (2 on crit)
