Welcome to our Restoration Druid healing guide for World of Warcraft 4.3. Here, you will learn everything you need to know about playing a Restoration Druid in a raid environment, though most of the content also applies to normal and heroic dungeons.

Restoration Druids are an interesting healing class. They cannot be easily classified as either tank healer or raid healer. Rather, they perform a sort of hybrid role of blanketing the raid with HoTs while providing good assistance on the main tank.

Restoration Druids are also reliant on keeping up several refreshable buffs and HoTs, as well as managing some procs.

Currently, Restoration Druids provide very solid healing overall and also bring several useful buffs and cooldowns to your raid, making them a very good choice.

In order to properly play a healing role, you will need more than just class-specific information. To better understand healing in general, we recommend that you read our healing guide.

To make it easy to bookmark the specific sections you are interested in, we have split the guide into 7 pages:
