So much better now that it's a 1-point talent! At least it makes sense now. When it was a 3-point talent I was wondering who in their right mind would have spent 3 points on a tier-3 talent to get 1 more tick out of MF, IS, Rejuv and Lifebloom.

Does anyone know if it stacks with the 2-pc set bonus from Nordrassil Raiment (T5 Resto)? Not that the T5 set would last all that long on a druid playing in the expansion I guess... haha

My question would be, "Does the increased duration effect, on let's say insect swarm, only extend how long it is there or does it allow for additional damage over that time?".

The reason I ask is because previous patchs where warlocks increased the duration of curse of agony, it changed the amount of periodic damage to do the same amount total over a longer period of time. And I wonder if this will do the same thing.

PS. Yes I know they have changed the warlock curse of agony talent to correct this.

Wouldn't a longer duration actually be bad for Lifebloom, though? Most of it's value as a healing spell comes from the "bloom" at the end.

You're probably right, this isn't the most amazing balance tallent there is, and it's pretty geared towards resto druids so they dont complain about loseing IS. But the fact of the matter is that this is an awsome 1 point tallent, sure you can keep Moonfire rolling forever but you've got a little longer on Insect swarm.. and any bet says you've poped out of Moonkin form more than once to heal in a sticky situation.. For that it's a totaly awsome talent.

And the fact of the matter is it's only one point, so if you really really dont want to take it, dont! there's plenty of points up there such as the increased range and reduce threat that can replace it at that teir :)

As of Level 70,
Resto druid point of view;
If you get this, you cannot get Wild Growth. And since Lifebloom now has 3 ranks, 1st rank is degraded seriously in my opinion. 1-2 more ticks to Reju, Regrowth or Lifebloom just doesn't worth it for now, as you can get another HOT to increase your general healing. +2 more seconds for lifebloom means more tanks to cycle lifeblooms, but it just does not worth it with rank 1 to be honest.

Also, +2 more seconds mean that it'll bloom late, and within that 2 second period, the target that could survive with bloom effect could die, making lifebloom less useful in raid healing / useless to a point.

On the long run, via this talent, you save loads of mana. But I'd definitely go for Wild Growth if someone asked me what to do, 11/0/50 or 5+/x/51

When we will be Level 80,
I only play on Live servers, so max is 70 as you know :P But my guesses are, when we're level 80, there'll be 3 ranks for Lifebloom, and I think it'll be again, one of the best healing spells. So, it'll definitely worth to take this, if you're going to cycle lifeblooms on tanks. Increasing mana efficency, and decreasing faults (lag-blooms).

For PVP, yes, additional seconds on lifebloom is a bit sub-par as you really are out for the final tick of lifebloom(just look at our arena idols), but keep in mind most the time lifeblooms are getting dispelled anyway in area <.<

Sure our arena idol buffs the final bonus, but if you've ever looked at the gear of a top ranked resto druid, they were/are using this. It's different for boomkins and ferals, where most of the healing come from the bloom, but with stacked healing gear, most of the healing comes from what comes before the bloom. I mean really...why would you let it bloom for 1600 when you have to spend 4.5 seconds to get back to the 600 hps you had before it bloomed? Plus, you can't control when it blooms. If you want a fast emergency heal, that's why we have swiftmend, otherwise, you bet your ass 3 stacks of LB is the best way to go heals wise. That's why, at first, I saw a lot of promise in this talent. However, in practice, I think this talent is doing what one of the above posters had worried about...at the moment, rumor has it that it's decreasing the total amount healed per tick and spacing it out over 9 seconds. I haven't confirmed it yet, but from talking to my various druid guildmates, we're starting to suspect that it does indeed space out the amount healed instead of increasing that amount. I'll be able to confirm/bust this myth a little later, but if it does indeed space it out like we suspect, the talent would be total trash. What makes lifebloom so awesome is the ability to keep 3 hots rolling with 1 cast, which is what you effectively do when you refresh a triple stack, providing a huge amount of continued healing for the mana. This talent cuts back on the tricks, which is not only worthless for arena healing, it's actually harmful, because it cuts back on the total HPS you can do. We'll see if this gets fixed eventually, but if it stays as it is, I'll be passing it by forever because it won't matter if I can roll LBs on 7 tanks if the healing they aren't getting good healing. And really...I've been able to roll full hot rotations on 2 tanks without any issues...how often does one have more than 2 tanks that require serious attention from a single healer anyway? That's what the other healers in your raid are for, and to help them, you'll need to do as much HPS as possible, meaning LBs ticking for as much as possible and your ability to use flourish, which will help you more than this talent ever will at the moment.

on a 3 stack of lifebloom, it's another 1200 healing for the same amount of mana, and allows for more globals to be used on other stuff, such as cc abolish dps more hots etc.

This does lower the per tick value of lifebloom. Rather significantly, imo, for a 3 stack. I lost close to a 150 points per lifebloom tick on my druid. Made it slightly harder to keep tanks up with my old lifebloom/rejuv as needed rotation but I was able to toss the additional reqrowth. Overall, wasn't too happy with the talent as it felt like it required me to use bigger spells, regrowth, to maintain the same level of healing, reducing my beloved mana efficiency.

Not having this as raiding resto druid at 80 = EPIC FAIL
Dunno about balance druids tbh, but it seems to be a must-have also.

Confirmed, tested this at 77.
Lifebloom was ticking for 169-170 without the talent, then I immediately got the talent and it was ticking for 169-170 as well.

If all you're looking for is the burst healing ASAP from lifebloom, then this talent is not for you, as it will only prolong what you want, but if you're Resto and want to be more mana efficient by a significant percentage, then get this late into the 70's and be happy you made a good decision.

Well worth the -1- talent point.
