Notes

• Can refresh Lifebloom, but with the current mana cost, it is more efficient to refresh Lifebloom via manual refresh.

Tips and tactics

• With Empowered Touch and Glyph of Healing Touch, [Healing Touch] becomes a very powerful tank heal.
• With the current cast time, this is a viable heal on the tank when the raid damage is not heavy.
