Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Updated March 29 (4.0.6). I use addons to keep my interface clean and clear, and so I can heal both reactively and proactively. I like to know who’s taking damage and why, but I hate clutter! Also, if I can’t see what’s under my feet I freak out a little😉. This is a random moment during Magmaw 10 (click for full screen):. And here is the annotated version. Explanations follow, but feel free to post questions🙂. This handy mod let...

Shadowfang Keep | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/shadowfang-keep
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. The NPC ghost just inside the entrance will teleport you deeper into the dungeon if you wipe after one of the later bosses and need to run back. The trash before the first boss is often a bit messy. Watch your line of sight to the tank. And be aware that only the Elite ghouls hit very hard and the geists run fairly helter-skelter but aren’t elite, so it’s not a disaster if you get a few adds. After Commander Springvale, in the bat...

Blackrock Caverns | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/blackrock-caverns
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Most of the trash is fairly simple, but there are two creatures that you will need to be especially alert for:. Quciksilver: the fire elementals (Slaves) in Karsh’s room have little molten oozes that melt and then set again depending how close the elementals are. When you pull an alemental, you will get a couple of quicksilver oozes as well, and you can either:. You can kite the elemental away from the quicksilver until they set OR.

Grim Batol | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/grim-batol
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Grim Batol is a fairly resto-druid-friendly instance. Lots of dispelling, multiple CC options and boss fights where party members may wander in and out of range so our HoTs are quite powerful. CC summary: Hibernate dragons, Entangle melee mobs. Healing summary: some mobs hit very hard, especially later in the instance, be prepared to start a pull using big heals initially. Clearing to General Umbriss. General Umbriss puts up ‘one ...

The Vortex Pinnacle | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/the-vortex-pinnacle
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. This heroic gives me a love-hate feeling. I love the architecture and the lightness and space of the instance. And I love healing it on my druid. I have had some nightmarish. Experiences healing it on my priest, hence the love-hate thing. I can. Say this is a great heroic to be a druid all three of the bosses have a great deal of movement, and heavily reward HoTs, and Entangling roots is a great choice for CC on the trash. Later i...

https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/lost-city-of-the-tolvir
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Lost City of the Tol’vir. This instance is probably the shortest of the Cata heroics, I’ve been in a group that cleared it in about 20 mins. But all of the bosses require some pretty alert healing/dispelling. The pygmy stacks do a conflagrate/dragonsbreath attack on the tank that you should dispel if you can, as they tend to deaggro when the tank is debuffed. Acquiring my focus for Entangling. General Husam's bombs. Shockwave has ...

Deadmines | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/deadmines
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. A revamp of an old favourite, the Deadmines is a fun heroic to heal as a druid. Packed with a mix of encounters that require heavy tank healing, or rapid topping up of party members, or lots of aoe damage, or fights on the move. There are some large trash pulls in the mine area leading down into the ship – especially in the lower parts of the ship where there are 4 or 5 elites in a pull. He throws down fire/frost areas around the ...

Healing basics | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/druid-guides/healing-guide
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. How to heal as a restoration druid: the absolute basics. Lets imagine a scenario: you’ve levelled to 85 with a dps spec, and want to try a hand at healing. You googled “druid healing” and feel kind of overwhelmed. You’d like to have some idea of what you’re doing before you set foot into an instance, but you don’t want to spend hours researching it. The aim of this guide is to lay out the basics of druid healing. There isn’t...

Throne of the tides | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/dungeon-guides/throne-of-the-tides
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Throne of the tides. I really enjoy this heroic – I didn’t get to do the normal version while levelling, so it was fun to step into for the first time. My main two observations are that a) it’s very pretty…. and more seriously b) I needed to do a lot of dispelling. I’m glad I have Nature’s Cure in my spec, as this instance rewards Magic, Curse and Poison dispelling. There'll be no accusations, just friendly crustaceans. The main p...

Heal aggro | Glow's branches
https://glowberry.wordpress.com/druid-guides/heal-aggro
Lost City of the Tol’vir. Throne of the tides. Ramblings of a resto druid. Healing aggro can feel like a major negative when you’re starting out as a healer. I feel it even more on my druid: we lack threat lowering tools like fade or salvation. And especially on large trash pulls and for boss fights where adds spawn and spend any time untanked. But managing and taking advantage of healing aggro can change it from a feeling of helplessness TANK! GET THESE ADDS OFF ME! To using your threat a powerful tool.
