Hello!

Again like most have said, this is a great side. So thanks for that. Bibbiz, I’d have to agree with you on this but I’ve got one question though. Last couple of weeks I’ve been thinking why not put those 2 points in natural perfection instead? I’d rather go with some extra crits on a boss fight than the mana revitalize gives. I think. What are your thoughts?

Hey!
Want to start out with a great thanks for making this guide. Helped me to fill out the last things i needed to know about resto druids.
Though i was checking out your talent suggestion and i wanted to say – Why 3/3 in Sublety ? You can just go with 2/3, it’s enough to keep the aggro low enough (trust me). I’m almost going with the same spec as you have suggested. Just a slight difference – 2/2 Empowered Touch & 2/3 Revitalize. Since i sometimes tend to spam Nourich in dire situations when the raid takes loads of damage. Critts for ~15k nourich isn’t to bad.
Just wanted to give you my thoughts
Thanks again!

Yeah I have this in my (other) druid’s spec, and in my Valithria healing spec. It’s defiantly a valid choice if you use nourish in your style of healing. I’m not a big nourisher myself, so I leave it out

Hey,

I was thinking that going for empowered touch, would be better then going for Living seed for the nourish bonus.
plus it wouldn’t hurt the Oh Sh**T Macro
I would appreciate any thoughs you have on that.

Knubby – Because you need the points that high on the tree to get to lower points, you can’t just move them to the bottom

hello Angela i was just looking into the spec a little bit and if i am not mistaken up through ICC no bosses or trash dispel your HoT’s or heals from your raid, and honestly if threat from a healer is a problem for your tanks they shouldn’t be in ICC lol. so i was just wondering would it not be more helpful to take all three points out of subtlety and put them all in revitalize in case your tank or dps get low on mana,rage,Runic power… etc?

Pretty much the specc I’m running. However, I don’t quite see why you filled out Subtlety with 3 points rather than just sticking to 2\3 and putting that last point into 1\3 Revitalize. Sure, the 5% chance ain’t that huge, but it’s not like that last point in Sublety does anything at all, so I’d say it’s better having that 5% chance on wild growth\rejuve ticks to restore some mana,energy etc.

so I have been planing on leveling a resto druid but I want to make it so I can heal for raids and for pvp/arena is there anything special I need todo or could I just follow this?

Your haste rating and your haste %% are different, so specing won’t change the number you see. The chart on this post will let you know how much haste you need basted on your spec to reach 50%.
