Lifebloom is a Restoration druid heal over time (HoT) spell. If Lifebloom completes its duration or is dispelled, it will bloom and immediately heal the target. Lifebloom can only be cast on one target at a time. If cast on another target the previous Lifebloom will vanish without blooming.
Notes
- The heal over time portion for this spell ticks every second, unlike other HoTs which only tick every two to three seconds.
- The periodic healing of Lifebloom has a 4% chance to proc [Omen of Clarity].
Improvements
- [Focused Growth] (honor talent)
Tips and tactics
- In PvP: players that can dispel Magic-type buffs will have to decide whether to leave the Lifebloom buff on (they continue to receive healing, then they'll get a chunk of health back), or to dispel it (in which case the target will get the final healing effect right away and can recast Lifebloom). One of the best mind-games a Druid can play in PvP.
