Ancestral Healing

Ancestral Healing is a Shaman talent in the Restoration tree. It causes your critical heals to reduce the physical damage taken by the target healed for 15 seconds. It does not stack with the holy priest's third tier talent Inspiration.

Tips and tactics

 * Simply keeping Riptide active on a tank will provide high uptime of Ancestral Fortitude, significantly reducing physical damage taken.
 * Since the buff can be dispelled, many PvP builds spend one point in Ancestral Healing just to use it as a dispel buffer for more important buffs like Bloodlust or Earth Shield.

Trivia

 * Ancestral Healing is a basic Shaman spell in Hearthstone. The flavor text reads: "I personally prefer some non-ancestral right-the-heck-now healing, but maybe that is just me."
