Heal is a level 24 Holy priest healing spell. It is the largest single-target direct heal available to the class, and the spell of choice if your target needs a large amount of healing, but isn't in any immediate danger. It is the slower but more affordable heal, as opposed to the faster but less cost effective [Flash Heal].

Improvements

• [Greater Heal] (honor talent)
• [Holy Words] (passive)

Trivia

• Prior to Patch 6.0.2, this spell was known as Greater Heal. The former [Heal] was a significantly weaker and slower spell, which was removed in the same patch.
• In Hearthstone, Heal is the upgraded version of the Priest Hero Power. It is obtained by playing Justicar Trueheart and replaces the standard Hero Power, [Lesser Heal].
