General Information

Welcome to our Restoration Druid guide for World of Warcraft — The War Within (11.0.5). Here, you will learn how to heal as a Restoration Druid in both raids and Mythic+ dungeons. We cover everything from the basics all the way to min-maxing techniques to optimize your output.

If you were looking for WotLK Classic content, please refer to our WotLK Classic Restoration Druid guide.

1.

Restoration Druid Overview

Restoration Druids specialize in maintaining a steady stream of healing on a few targets in the raid and offer strong bursts of healing after using cooldowns. Restoration Druids also do well when healing a small number of targets for a prolonged period (such as players with debuffs).

Restoration Druids generally suffer when they have to react to damage for which they were not prepared and when they did not have the time to set up their HoTs. Tranquility Icon Tranquility, Incarnation: Tree of Life Icon Incarnation: Tree of Life, and Flourish Icon Flourish offer decent burst healing when needed.

To properly play a healing role, you will need more than just class-specific information. To better understand healing in general, we recommend that you read our healing guide.

Patch 11.0.5 Changes for Restoration Druid

  • Mark of the Wild Icon Mark of the Wild now costs 1% base Mana (was 4%).
  • New Talent: Twinleaf – Nature's Swiftness Icon Nature's Swiftness now has 2 charges.
  • New Talent: Wildwood Roots Icon Wildwood RootsAbundance Icon Abundance now also reduces the cast time of Regrowth Icon Regrowth by 5% per stack. Cenarion Ward Icon Cenarion Ward's cooldown is reduced by 10 seconds and its duration is increased by 2 seconds.
  • New Talent: Renewing Surge Icon Renewing Surge – The cooldown of Swiftmend Icon Swiftmend is reduced by up to 40%, based on the current Health of the target. Cooldown is reduced more when cast on a lower health target.
  • New Talent: Forest's Flow – Consuming Clearcasting now causes your Regrowth Icon Regrowth to also cast Nourish Icon Nourish onto a nearby injured ally at 60% effectiveness, preferring those with your heal over time effects.
  • Dream of Cenarius Icon Dream of Cenarius has been redesigned – Wrath Icon Wrath and Shred Icon Shred transfer 50% of their damage and Starfire Icon Starfire and Swipe Icon Swipe transfer 33% of their damage into healing onto a nearby ally. This effect is increased by 200% while Heart of the Wild Icon Heart of the Wild is active.
  • Omen of Clarity Icon Omen of Clarity is now a passive ability learned at level 12 (was a talent).
  • Harmonious Blooming Icon Harmonious Blooming is now a 1-point talent.
  • Flourish Icon Flourish now affects Symbiotic Blooms (Wildstalker HoT).
  • Reforestation Icon Reforestation now requires 4 casts of Swiftmend Icon Swiftmend (was 3).

Renewing Surge Icon Renewing Surge might seem very strong, but most of the time it will provide barely any cooldown reduction. It scales linearly with your target's Health, which means that they need to be at 1% Health for you to gain 6-second reduction. On average it will give around 2-3 seconds of reduction, which is still very powerful (especially with Wildstalker in Mythic+). It might also help with timings for Reforestation Icon Reforestation in raids.

Reforestation Icon Reforestation nerf is pretty severe for raiding. There are multiple bosses which require you to proc it every minute, meaning that you will have to either spec into Renewing Surge Icon Renewing Surge or risk not proccing it in time.

Wildwood Roots Icon Wildwood Roots is the biggest change for raids. It not only reduces the cast time, but also global cooldown of Regrowth Icon Regrowth. The global cooldown cap of 0.75 seconds exists, but this is still a massive increase to the number of Regrowth Icon Regrowths you can fit after Flourish Icon Flourish.

Wildwood Roots Icon Wildwood Roots is also great for Mythic+. It makes Cenarion Ward Icon Cenarion Ward even stronger. For tier 1 talent, this is pretty powerful.

Forest's Flow Icon Forest's Flow is only going to be viable for Mythic+. It is a much weaker version of our tier set from Dragonflight. The target selection on it is still bad, it competes with all the best talents in the last third, and does not have the other part of our tier which made it cleave. This still makes it good for Mythic+, although not as strong as some people might expect.

Dream of Cenarius Icon Dream of Cenarius change is inconsequential. It is still a bad healing talent competing with our best talents in the tree.

Most Notable Restoration Druid and Guide Changes for the War Within

Restoration has seen significant changes to the class tree, which has made it easier for us to acquire some talents like Feline Swiftness Icon Feline Swiftness, Renewal Icon Renewal, and some defensive options because the number of required talent points was reduced significantly. We have lost access to Moonkin Form Icon Moonkin Form (and therefore Flap Icon Flap and Wild Charge Icon Wild Charge disengage). Finally, and most importantly, Astral Influence Icon Astral Influence has been changed to only work on spells, which means Cat Form abilities and auto-attacks no longer have increased range.

In terms of the spec tree, the top and the middle of the tree were left basically unchanged. All the changes were to the bottom part. We are losing Adaptive Swarm Icon Adaptive Swarm completely. Luxuriant Soil Icon Luxuriant Soil is also gone, but the raw power of Rejuvenation Icon Rejuvenation is increased to compensate. There have also been a few new talents and reshuffles.

  • New Talent: Call of the Elder Druid Icon Call of the Elder Druid — When you shift into a combat shapeshift form or cast Starsurge Icon Starsurge, you gain Heart of the Wild Icon Heart of the Wild for 10 seconds, once every 60 seconds. This talent replaces Adaptive Swarm. This talent is very bad unless you spend most of your time doing damage, which is generally not the case in any content that matters.
  • New Talent: Dream of Cenarius — While Heart of the Wild Icon Heart of the Wild is active, Wrath Icon Wrath and Shred Icon Shred transfer 150% of their damage and Starfire Icon Starfire and Swipe Icon Swipe transfer 100% of their damage into healing onto a nearby ally. This talent replaces Unbridled Swarm (the improved Adaptive Swarm part). Unfortunately, it is not very good because Heart of the Wild's uptime is not very high.
  • New Talent: Thriving Vegetation Icon Thriving VegetationRejuvenation Icon Rejuvenation instantly heals for 15/30% of its periodic healing, and Regrowth's duration is increased by 3/6 seconds. This talent replaces Luxuriant Soil (Rejuvenation spread). It is actually decently strong, doing around 5-8% for 2 talent points.
  • New Talent: Prosperity Icon ProsperitySwiftmend Icon Swiftmend now has 2 charges. This talent replaces Flourish Icon Flourish in the choice node with Verdant Infusion Icon Verdant Infusion. It is very strong for both Mythic+ and Raids. You will waste less of Swiftmend cooldown, which means your Reforestation Icon Reforestation uptime goes up.
  • Grove Guardians Icon Grove Guardians' healing reduced by 15%. Wild Synthesis Icon Wild Synthesis Wild Growth healing reduced by 15%.
  • Verdant Infusion Icon Verdant Infusion now extends the duration of heal over time effects by 8 seconds (was 12 seconds).
  • Nurturing Dormancy Icon Nurturing Dormancy is now capped at a 4-second extension (was 6 seconds).
  • Abundance Icon Abundance now increases the Critical Strike chance of Regrowth by 8% and decreases its Mana cost by 8% per stack (was 5%). This is a significant buff to both throughput and Mana efficiency for us, especially in raids.
  • Photosynthesis Icon Photosynthesis and Flourish Icon Flourish now share a choice node in the same place Photosynthesis used to be. This means we will no longer use Photosynthesis in raids, and therefore, Lifebloom Icon Lifebloom goes back to tanks. In Mythic+, this does not change much. A lot of players were already running without Flourish there.

To summarise these changes, we can pick all the healing talents we want much easier in the class tree, which leaves more points available to be invested into utility, defense, or damage. Healing in raids will remain the same, nothing changes there. Healing in Mythic+ is significantly nerfed due to the loss of Adaptive Swarm.

The biggest change by far is the reduction of Grove Guardians Icon Grove Guardianss' power. They will do a lot less healing, and their healing was moved to other spells, namely Rejuvenation Icon Rejuvenation and Regrowth Icon Regrowth. Especially in raids, although we play with Keeper of the Grove Hero Talents, the treants are now mainly used as buffs to your healing instead of a throughput option on their own. Just popping them and expecting them to contribute a lot of healing is no longer a thing. You need to set up a lot of HoTs before popping them, and then keep healing while they are up. For Mythic+, you need to heal more actively than before because treants heal for so much less, and Regrowth heals for so much more.

Leveling and Getting Started as a Restoration Druid

Before you start leveling your Druid, we suggest you take a look at our Addons page, as setting up your UI before you begin will allow you to get more comfortable with playing your character on max level.

Unfortunately, leveling as a Restoration Druid is only optimal if you have a group and plan on doing it in dungeons. But if you decide to do it anyway, refer to our leveling guide:

Restoration Druid is all about using your abilities strategically. Rather than a fixed rotation, you will be using your flexible spell kit to adapt and overcome whatever the game throws at you.

Two abilities require constant maintenance throughout the combat: Efflorescence Icon Efflorescence and Lifebloom Icon Lifebloom. Wild Growth Icon Wild Growth has a relatively low cooldown, high Mana efficiency, and high group-wide healing. Using these 3 spells often is one of the basic things to learn as a Restoration Druid. Rejuvenation Icon Rejuvenation will be used as a filler spell for as much as your Mana will allow, but preferably concentrated around heavy group damage and coupled with your cooldowns such as Incarnation: Tree of Life Icon Incarnation: Tree of Life, Innervate Icon Innervate, Flourish Icon Flourish.

If you are an absolute beginner to the spec but would like to learn the fundamentals of the class, recommend looking through the Spell Summary first, as well as the Easy Mode page linked below.

If you are familiar with Restoration Druid, go to the Talents and Rotation pages for more detailed information.

How to Gear Up a Restoration Druid

Gearing can get complicated as a healer due to many variables and multiple available group sizes. You can find information on how best to gear a Restoration Druid on the gearing page, which includes Best in Slot recommendations from this tier.

After acquiring gear, you will want to ensure you have the best consumables, gems, and enchants. You can also find more information about the role of each stat for a Restoration Druid, which one you should be stacking and why.

7.

Restoration Druid End-Game

End-game content can be very daunting right after leveling. Our Mythic+ Dungeon, Raiding, and PvP guides can guide you to perform as well as possible, regardless of your content preference.

Another important aspect of the end game as a Restoration Druid is dealing damage. You can check the in-depth guide here.
