FAIRY TAIL Wizard Chronicle Best Support and Healer Characters: Sustain and Buff Your Team
Supports and healers are essential in FAIRY TAIL Wizard Chronicle, keeping your carries alive while boosting their damage, crit, and ultimate uptime. Wendy Marvell in particular is widely regarded as the best support/healer in the game, with several other UR units also offering powerful sustain and buffs.
S+ tier supports and healers
These units are considered near‑mandatory in many high‑level teams thanks to their healing, buffs, or defensive utility.
A major written tier list explicitly calls Wendy “currently, the best Heal and Support unit in the game,” and a release video describes her as “the ultimate heal and support unit” that makes “half your problems just vanish.” Multiple community discussions and videos also argue that Wendy is effectively mandatory for progression because her constant heals and buffs keep fragile teams alive while pushing DPS over key thresholds.

Other strong support options
Beyond the “big three” healers/supports, several other URs provide excellent team utility through buffs, defensive tools, or hybrid sustain.
While Wendy is the default first pick, Mirajane, Brandish, Meredy, and Makarov give you other support styles: cleanse‑heavy healer, colour‑specific buffers, or defensive walls for difficult content.
How to pick and use support/healer units
To get the most from supports and healers:
- Aim to run at least one premium healer/support (ideally Wendy) plus one secondary utility support (Mirajane/Brandish/Meredy/Makarov) in most end‑game comps.
- Place them in the back row to minimise their exposure to AoE and let them sustain your frontliners and DPS; several players note Wendy’s fragility as a weakness if she is hit too often.
- Prioritise skill upgrades and gear that improve survivability and cooldowns on your healers; their value comes from staying alive long enough to keep their buffs and heals active.
