How to Play a Restoration Druid

Kevin Choy
Healers are the second most demanding classes in World of Warcraft in raids next to tanks. Druids are known to be the best healers in the game for both arena and raids. They are an essential part of your group.

The only thing restoration druid aren't good for is leveling. Being able to have a lot of healing in leveling is useless unless you plan on leveling with a partner the whole way, but it's not recommended because leveling individually is faster than doing it as a group. It will however help in dungeons and group situations.

Druids are amazing in pvp and raids. Druids use something called "HoTs" which are "heal over time". Their heals will sustain and heal the targeted players for a long period of time. They are also a great source of buff because of their mark of wild. Druids can heal many people all at a time, and their ability to heal themselves very quickly are known to annoy other people trying to kill them.

In arena, druids are the most powerful healers. This is because of their ability to heal in tree of life form, survive, and use other forms. They will turn into cat form and stealth waiting for their main dps source to lose some health. When the player loses health, he will switch into tree of life form and heal him at an incredible rate and back away. No one can catch or kill the druid because they can heal themselves at an incredible rate. Everyone hates druid healers in both battlegrounds and arena because of their healing abilities. They are also able to provide a good source of dps if needed.

In raids, druids are very important. They will be able to place heal over time on many players and help keep the group alive. The direct healers will focus on tanks while druids usually focus on multiple players because of their ability to use HoTs. They need intelligence for mana, mp5 for mana regeneration, and plus healing for effective healing.
