Changes To Venthyr Restoration Druids in 9.2
Legendaries
Venthyr
罪孽恩宠
- now increases the duration of
饕餮狂乱
by 0.1 second with each application (was 0.2 seconds) and you will not be overcome by Frenzy for 3 seconds after it ends (was 5 seconds).
Venthyr Restoration Druid Covenant Abilities
Venthyr Druid Class Ability:
饕餮狂乱
The Venthyr Class Ability for Druids of all specializations is
饕餮狂乱
, a 3-minute cooldown that with every spell cast in the 20s duration grants a 2% damage and healing and 1% haste stacking buff. If you are idle for more than 2s during its duration then you'll be stunned for 1s and take 1% of you maximum health in damage for each stack of the buff.
There are a lot of subtleties regarding the implementation of this spell, and caveats to note:
At early levels you're looking at somewhere between 8-10 stacks of the buff for 16-20% healing and 8-10% haste.
You are not considered idle while channeling or casting.
The idle timer does not start until the end of the GCD for instant cast spells.
Blinds, fears, and stuns will not cause you to be considered idle. Mind controls and other crowd control statuses will consider you to be idle.
The strength of this ability is its versatility; it can be used for improving single target or AoE healing, raid or mythic+, damage or healing. It synergizes well with
化身:生命之树
and every other
繁盛
. Can be combined with
激活
to mitigate the increased mana usage of this ability.
Venthyr Conduit for
饕餮狂乱
The
无穷饥渴
conduit for
饕餮狂乱
provides % critical strike chance scaling per stack stack to this cooldown ability. Overall the conduit is a pretty solid throughput increase especially with the buff in 9.0.5 albeit not exactly the most exciting.
Restoration Druid Conduit Guide
Venthyr Druid Signature Ability:
暗影之门
As a Restoration Druid, our mobility is top notch. We rarely struggle with movement and positioning and in Shadowlands we even have
狂奔怒吼
as a newly added tool. We're even able to stealth via
潜行
and
新生
when a skip is called for in Mythic+. So additional mobility may be overkill. That being said the range of the teleport of
暗影之门
is incredibly useful; however, the cast time makes this ability somewhat difficult to use reactively, such as when you find yourself standing in fire. There will definitely be uses for this regarding skips and avoiding entire mechanics, but is likely best used when planned ahead of time.
All three soulbinds modify this in some way; we will get into that later.
Venthyr Exclusive Legendary for Restoration Druids
NEW Venthyr Legendary
罪孽恩宠
: Each time
饕餮狂乱
is applied its duration is increased by 0.1 seconds. Additionally,
饕餮狂乱
lingers and will not overcome you for 3s after it ends.
This legendary provides more time at the more powerful part of the buff which can be strong, however as a healer it's unlikely for the damage event to require healing for the full duration anyway resulting in some portion of the ability being wasted. Likely better for our DPS Druid counterparts.
Other Legendary Interactions for Venthyr Restoration Druids
There are currently no other legendaries that interact with or modify
饕餮狂乱
or
暗影之门
in any meaningful way. Perhaps something will be added in the future.

Best Venthyr Restoration Druid Soulbinds
Best Venthyr Restoration Druid Max Renown 80 Soulbind
On the way to Renown 80, you'd still maintain Theotar throughout the Renown leveling process.
Conduits are socketed in order of highest priority from top to bottom in order to facilitate the greatest benefit when empowering conduit rows from renown. Please see our Restoration Druid Conduit Guide for more information on Conduits including Empowered Conduits.
Restoration Druid Conduit Guide
Restoration Druid's choice of soulbind for Venthyr at Renown 80 remains Theotar. The healing and damage reduction of
茶话会永不终结
makes for an excellent addition, and the
小队恩惠
trait provides a consumable that grants a flat 3% increase to Intellect, Haste, Versatility, or Critical Strike Chance. The consumable has had a lot of quality of life added throughout the 9.1 PTR with it now lasting 4hrs and persisting through death. It's one more consumable to manage but it's totally worth it.
Venthyr Restoration Druid Covenant Rotation Changes
As usual, this page only highlights the specific use case of the class and signature abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to check the other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:
Restoration Druid Rotation Guide
饕餮狂乱
For healing,
饕餮狂乱
should ideally be used nearly on cooldown as a response to significant incoming AoE burst damage to quickly heal up allies before subsequent damage has a chance to cause deaths. As with
宁静
, be mindful of other healer's raid cooldowns as to get the maximum value out of
饕餮狂乱
. Consider using in combination with
化身:生命之树
for maximum throughput and with
激活
to mitigate the additional mana consumption. Generally avoid using
饕餮狂乱
with
宁静
as the power of this ability comes from maximizing and you'll only receive 1 stack for a full
宁静
channel.
When prioritizing damage,
饕餮狂乱
should be cast on cooldown or in conjunction with
野性之心
while in your affinity shapeshift.
暗影之门
This ability is pretty straightforward, use it when you need to move, and have the time to cast it. Be wary of where you are teleporting and avoid using it if you are already standing in something;
急奔
or
野性冲锋
is probably better in those scenarios.
Venthyr Restoration Druid Talent Builds
Your talent build does not change when choosing this covenant. However, you can combine
饕餮狂乱
with the talent
化身:生命之树
to provide even more burst healing if necessary.

Venthyr Restoration Druid Gearing Differences
Prioritizing higher item level pieces will still be the proper way to gear as a Venthyr Restoration Druid. Secondary stats will still follow the more balanced approach to gearing when considering similar item level pieces.
Venthyr Restoration Druid Soulbinds Explained
Venthyr have access, across all classes and specs, to the same three soulbinds:
Nadjia the Mistblade
,
Theotar the Mad Duke
and
General Draven
. They are the NPCs you complete the zone story with, and allow you to "attune" yourself to them to gain access to a tree of upgrades centered around your base toolkit (through Conduits) and covenant abilities (through special, game-wide traits).
This tree progressively unlocks based on completion steps (such as finishing the campaign) and your renown level with the Venthyr covenant.
We've summarized the optimal traits for each soulbind along with potential conduits to slot in below. Do bear in mind that finesse conduit choice is largely personal preference. For more information on Conduits see our Restoration Druid Conduit Guide.
Nadjia grants you a few impactful traits:
兴奋追猎者
provides a hefty 20% haste buff for 10s every 80s. If this lines up with large incoming burst damage events then it's fantastic, but any misalignment will be a major waste. It's possible to increase the overall uptime by defeating enemies to provide additional stacks. Healing any ally that damages these enemies does count as you defeating an enemy, so no damage from you is required.
精心准备
acts as a 20% multiplier on your enchants, food buffs, and flask effects. When fully buffed, this will be nice increase but anytime you're not this will feel like a loss. Don't expect to get much out of this trait while world questing or even low key level Mythic+.
罪孽保护
adds an absorb to healthstones and health potions. Exceptional for preventing some of the follow up damage after healing up.
致命缺陷
, the new 9.1 capstone trait essentially extends the
兴奋追猎者
by an additional 10s but with 20% critical strike chance or versatility instead of Haste. resulting in an uptime of 25%. Nice throughput bump but still no additional control over the proc.
In addition to this, Nadjia modifies your
暗影之门
in one of two possible ways:
眩目步法
gives you a sprint-like effect after using
暗影之门
perhaps best to get just a bit farther than the range of
暗影之门
allows.
混沌代理人
disorients all mobs in the vicinity of the landing point of
暗影之门
. Excellent for engaging or quickly moving into melee in Mythic+.
I generally recommend the following soulbind tree and conduit placement for Nadjia:
Theotar the Mad Duke provides access to some interesting traits:
抚慰阴影
your abilities have a chance to proc a zone that when you stand within you get a sizeable mastery buff for 12s. At 1 rppm and some quick reflexes to get in the shade, you'll have about a 20% uptime. Not bad but does require you to stay within the shade zone trading mobility for throughput.
废土礼节
causes your
饕餮狂乱
to also grant you 6% versatility for 30 seconds, along with 3% versatility for the rest of your party. If you're looking to further supercharge your
饕餮狂乱
then this can be great, but it roughly averages out to about 1% versatility over 3 minutes.
In most situations, our primary potion will be some type of mana potion. For instant potions like
灵魂法力药水
,
高雅味觉
won't provide much benefit, but for others with a specific duration this could be strong: consider
幽魂智力药水
or
神圣觉醒药水
.
感激之情
provides some nice absorption shields to your fellow healers. Not bad considering you can also pickup a potency conduit with this trait.
茶话会永不终结
adds a minor heal and damage reduction to
抚慰阴影
. Not game-breaking but a nice addition nonetheless.
The
小队恩惠
trait allows you to talk Theotar to obtain a new consumable that that grants a flat 3% increase to Intellect, Haste, Versatility, or Critical Strike Chance. The consumable has had a lot of quality of life added throughout the 9.1 PTR with it now lasting 4hrs and persisting through death. It's one more consumable to manage but it's totally worth it.
In addition to this, Theotar modifies your
暗影之门
in one of two possible ways:
看好脚下!
causes
暗影之门
to instantly break roots and snares.
从容不迫
grants an extra charge
暗影之门
at the cost of a 30s increased cooldown. Generally favorable as this allows back-to-back teleporting even at the cost of cooldown increase.
I generally recommend the following soulbind tree and conduit placement for Theotar the Mad Duke:
Picking General Draven grants access to the following notable traits:
As an on-death effect,
岩石效命
is generally frowned upon. You'll do more healing if you're alive than this trait will do with you dead. When it does proc it'll be a nice bonus but isn't something that should be relied on to contribute to your throughput. The damage reduction is nice, but again doesn't really help throughput.
If you can manage to stop jumping around with all the mobility you have a Restoration Druid, then
坚守阵地
can grant a significant 10% stamina and 4% extra healing done. Combine this with the potency conduit in this path and it's a solid ending for a soulbind that starts off really slow.
If
再生石肤
benefited from all overhealing you did in addition to the overhealing done to you, then we might have a fairly strong trait, but as it currently stands it's kind of a week survivability trait.
If
战场气息
provide a nice bonus as long as you can be in melee of enemies with the maximum benefit occurring at 3 enemies. This has potential in Mythic+, but will be more limited in other content.
In addition to this, Draven modifies your
暗影之门
:
持续阴霾
grants a 15% max health shield when casting
暗影之门
. It allows you to more safely use your
暗影之门
which is a plus in my book.
Double Legendaries for Venthyr Restoration Druid
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Venthyr Restoration Druid even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.
