Florescer is now a passive talent attached to Tranquilidade casts. It is more powerful but available much less frequently.

Guardiões do Bosque are now passive and spawn on Crescimento Silvestre & Recomposição Rápida casts.

Poder do Arquidruida is now attached to Alma da Floresta.

You are now able to attach Eflorescência to your Brotar da Vida target via the Passo Vivo talent.

Keep important abilities on cooldown and keep Eflorescência down: These are maintenance-type tasks that you should try and maximize uptime on. Eflorescência should be down 100% of the time in a group of stacked allies. Cast your short cooldowns like Recomposição Rápida and Crescimento Silvestre frequently, since they are highly efficient buttons.

Coordinate cooldowns: Restoration Druids have access to powerful cooldowns in Midnight. Make sure your raid is assigning Convocar Espíritos, Encarnação: Árvore da Vida, and Tranquilidade so that you can get as many good uses as possible per fight. Think of these as Mana-efficient buttons as well, and avoid holding them "just in case".

Manage your Mana: Restoration Druids can burn through Mana very quickly, so it's important that you align your use of filler spells like Rejuvenescer with periods of high damage. You can also regenerate a lot of Mana with Mestre Metamorfo. Try and get into the habit of going through periods of heavy healing and then heavy regeneration. Use Avivar when you plan on casting multiple Rejuvenescers in a row.

We losing Healing Touch and Displacer Beast with nothing to replace it ;-(

Regarding Restoration: A little bit disappointed with the nerf to Tranquility and one of our best azerite traits looks to now really only benefit M+ and in return we get an upgraded BR and some mana bits. Am I reading this correctly ?

Resto druid is dead in 8.1

Comentário de Lashima1

Would be nice to see the Tree form Glyph have an appearance update or better yet have Tree form as an actual restoration form. Its not fair that the other specs have to actually shapeshift into a specific form for a boost in performance etc and Resto does not... Plus the tree glyph appearance is a little outdated now

Thank you for putting time in to creating this guide. I am sure everyone who comes to this page appreciates all the info you can find here. I feel like I come back daily and read different things.

Thank you for all the hard work you did to write this guide I do however have a question.

Why in the cheat sheet it states that my best stats for resto are int>haste>mast>crit>vers

But literally almost all the gear you have selected from both the M+side and the Riad side are Haste>vers or Haste>crit but hardly any Haste>mastery gear ?

Comentário de coalgiver

Well finally somebody figured out that the circle of life and death talent choice is an awful talent for resto. Druid healers don't want haste because they just go oom faster (if you don't believe me, try a crit, mastery/versa build and watch the glory ensue - and ya it even works in raid). Heal like a champ.

between this guide and estebeste's druid guide on youtube I am playing a ton better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kysUwIh2_yg&t=1285s

Comentário de Hitotsuki

I would say it might be worth noting the change to tranq in TWW, heals more but heals fewer people is kinda huge. Losing Adaptive Swarm is also a net loss for a lot of M+ players. Overall happy it's been updated and keep up the good work!

Comentário de Anise

RDruid is too much work now. I am shelving my main. It is just not good enough now. Even with all 12 hots on people that is still not good enough to deal with the spikey nature of the damage that is being dished out.

Unavoidable abilities even if you are nowhere near them are still hitting you and taking more than half your life in an instant, looking at you Hadal Darkfathom. Those white pools are unavoidable no matter if you are out of the puddles or nowhere near them. You will receive damage on those casts. This dungeon is also placing crap you should not sand in, in the only safe zonebehind the pillar during tidal wave.

This expansion is more and more of a fricken joke by the day.

Latest news is that Necrotic Wake hands out no crests. More bugs. The Bugs Within.
