Aloha! Today I bring you this guide for Druid Restoration in which I will show you which are the best talents and equipment for my taste.
Druid Restoration
Druids control the enormous powers of nature
to keep balance and protect life.
Modifications in patch 8.3
- Mastery: Harmony healing bonus reduced by 9%.
- Noon Sun Azerite Trait damage reduced by 34%.
Talents
Now I will tell you what talents I think are convenient to have in our build and the explanation of all the available talents.
- Level 15: Abundance.
- Level 30: Renewal.
- Level 45: Guardian Affinity.
- Level 60: (indifferent).
- Level 75: Cultivation.
- Level 90: Inner peace.
- Level 100: Flourish.
lvl 15
- Feline swiftness: Swift Mend now has 2 charges and its cooldown is reduced by 3 seconds.
- Tremulous beast: Protects a friendly target for 30 sec. Any damage taken will consume the ward and heal the target for (220% of Spell power). for 8 sec.
- Wild load: For each active Rejuvenation, Regrowth's cost is reduced by 6% and its critical effect chance is increased by 6%.
The best and fully recommended option would be Wild load. Forces us to have enough rejuvenation so that it is viable to launch regrowth in cases of extreme need. But it makes up for it. Keep in mind that Druids are mana submachine guns and that if we can save something even just a few, it is well worth it.
lvl 30
- Ysera's Gift: Heals you for 30% of your maximum health instantly. It can be used in all ways.
- Renewal: Activates Cat Form and increases movement speed by 200%. Gradually reduced over 5 sec.
- Cenarius Ward: Grants a movement ability that varies according to the form:
- No shape change
Fly to an ally's position. - Bear shape
Charges at an enemy, immobilizing them for 4 sec. - Feline form
Jump behind an enemy and daze them for 3 sec. - Form of travel
Jump forward 20 m. - Aquatic form
Increases swim speed by an additional 150% for 5 sec.
- No shape change
This is a survival branch and varies depending on your survival methods: mobility or healing. The Druid healer is a very mobile class with good survivability so I leave this branch to your liking in the two options: renewal o Renewal.
In my case I choose Ysera's Gift since it is very close to my style of play and allows me to save some mana in critical situations towards me needing a lot of heals. But as I tell you, both options are totally viable.
lvl 45
- Faerie swarm: Increases the range of all your abilities by 5 yards. You also learn:
- Moonkin Shape
- Wave of stars
- Moon strike
- Massive entanglement: Increases your movement speed by 15%. Your energy regeneration is increased by 35%. You also learn:
- Scratch
- Gut
- Fierce bite
- Flagellum
- Typhoon: Reduces all damage taken by 6%. You also learn:
- Thrashing
- Iron fur
- Frenzied regeneration
The bonus of minus 6% continuous damage from Typhoon increases our chances of survival.
lvl 60
- Forest soul: Summons the Spirit of Ursoc, stunning the target for 5 sec. It can be used in all ways.
- Incarnation: Tree of Life: Roots the target in place for 20 sec and spreads to other nearby enemies. Damage can interrupt the effect. It can be used in all ways.
- Force of Nature: A violent typhoon strikes targets in front of you within 15 yards, knocking them back and stunning them for 6 sec. It can be used in all ways.
Optional branch, the one that best suits our game.
lvl 75
- Disabling roar: When you cast Swift Mending, you gain Soul of the Forest, increasing the healing from your next Regrowth or Rejuvenation by 200%, or increasing the healing from your next Wild Growth by 75%.
- incarnation-tree-of-life: Changes to Tree of Life form, increasing healing done by 15%, armor by 120%, and granting protection against polymorph effects. Enhanced Rejuvenation, Wild Growth, Regrowth and Entangling Roots functionality. Lasts 30 sec. You can go in and out this way while it lasts.
- Mighty scourge: When Rejuvenation heals a target below 60% health, it applies Cultivation to the target, healing them for (24% of Spell power). for 6 sec.
Mighty scourge It is perfect in small and large groups, a regular one that helps a lot if things get a bit complicated.
Below we have incarnation-tree-of-life. It is a very good talent but the very long cd that it has does not compensate too much, it is used in extreme cases and it does not make it as attractive as the previous option.
lvl 90
- Heart of the Wild: Each target healed by Bloom is healed for (15% of Spell power). extra health for 6 sec.
- Cenarius dream: Reduces the cooldown of Tranquility by 60 sec.
- Germination: Reduces the cooldown of Iron Bark by 15 sec and increases the healing from your healing over time effects by 20%.
The three talents are very good but above all we find Cenarius dream y spring flowers.
For general use and as a preference we have Cenarius dream, one min less to use one of the strongest tochas of our class, tranquility, is greatly appreciated, especially in combat with massive dangerous areas.
Another viable option focused on small groups or small spaces (like Grong) but that counts in fewer situations is spring flowers. It is a bit below, since it only compensates in very static fights where flowering it gives us game.
Last Germination it is well below the previous options. Play in small groups for dungeons and myths + but not in raids. It is not recommended.
lvl 100
- Photosynthesis: While under the effects of your Lifebloom, your periodic heals heal 15% faster. While an ally is under the effects of your Lifebloom, your periodic heals on them have a 5% chance to cause them to bloom.
- Nature's Vigil: You can apply Rejuvenation twice to the same target.
- Rampant growth: Increases the duration of all your healing over time effects on friendly targets within 8 yards by 60 sec. Your healing over time effects heal 100% faster for 8 sec.
We highlight Nature's Vigil y to flourish they are very very good and respond wonderfully in various situations.
Rampant growth It is more widely used, it is the best option in this branch. It helps to save a lot of mana thanks to the extension of our periodicals. It goes of pearls to prolong our best cures such as shelter-of-cenaius. In addition, the new patch 8.0 has improved by linking the old flourish with the aretefacto weapon trait. ghanir essence. With which we not only increase the duration of our healings but also enhance them.
For small groups and dungeons we have Nature's Vigil. Very good synergy with talent Wild load since the 2nd rejuvenation (the one that germinates) also counts. It's no worse than Rampant growth but it would not be focused on widespread use or large groups such as raids.

Practical tips
- As the name suggests Flower of life "Gives you life." This healing ALWAYS it must be activated, whatever the objective. If you do not miss opportunities to have free-throw.
- Guarda calm down for moments of dangerous massive damage.
- Remember now calm down leaves a periodic healing bonus. If you don't have on CD to flourish take advantage and use it to extend its duration.
- The best time to use to flourish This is when the group (or gang) has many of your heals activated. Do not hesitate at that time, use it. Maintain a good mana base with your head.
- Keep several rejuvenation as a group, take advantage of the mana reduction it gives you Wild load.
- Keep all the periodic ones you can on the tanks, you will make the most of your harmony.
- The support between healers has to be constant, if you see that a healer teammate has a hard time with mana, help him with stimulate without thinking twice.
- If you have many periodic active at the same time on several objectives, use to flourish, will give you a mana break and help you focus on other critical targets.
- flowering It is usually used to melee (focused on the tank) although be careful of the changes of position and sudden movements, it is throwing mana for nothing.
- In encounters with semi-static positions, take advantage of using flowering + flowers in an area with a group, if not pass it to the area of tanks and melees.
BIS team
Azerite Traits
essences
- In band we will go with the largest slot and in minors , y .
- In dungeon we will go with the largest slot and in minors , y .
Corruption
Only two traits of corruption: y .
These two traits are the best for your druid. From there, the rest of the traits I recommend not having them and purifying them. The cleaner you go, the less problems you will have with corruption attacks and speed bumps.
