How do you build and play a Life Domain Cleric?
Keep Wisdom high for Cleric spellcasting, use heavy armor when it suits the build, and treat healing as one part of a full Cleric toolkit rather than spending every action restoring hit points. Life Domain is especially efficient at bringing injured allies back into a safe range while still contributing through concentration spells, control, radiant damage and ordinary Cleric support.

Blessed Healer separately restores hit points to you when that qualifying healing spell targets another creature. At 17th level, Supreme Healing maximizes the spell's healing dice. These are separate features and can all matter on the same qualifying healing spell.
