Incarnation: Tree of Life (often nicknamed Tree Form, Healing Form or Treant Form) is a Restoration druid talent. It allows the druid to temporarily shapeshift into the tree of life, increasing healing by 15% and armor by 120%, granting immunity to polymorph effects, and enhancing several spells. Lasts 30 seconds.

It is an exclusive choice node with Ability ardenweald druid [Convoke the Spirits].

Notes[]

The Troll, Tauren, Worgen, and Night Elf tree forms

While in tree form, the druid can cast spells just as in caster form, and several spells are enhanced:

The instant cast Spell nature resistnature [Regrowth] and improvements to Ability druid flourish [Wild Growth] and Spell nature rejuvenation [Rejuvenation] make it an especially potent raid healing form, but the 15% bonus to all healing makes it a good cooldown for any healing crisis.

With regard to consumables and items, Tree of Life works the same as being in humanoid form. The only exception is that you cannot mount in this form. Racial abilities work as normal in tree form.

This form has animations for dance, cheer, applaud, cry, bow, wave, and sleep emotes, however the Night Elf model cannot dance.

Trivia[]

Tips and tactics[]

Tree of Life TCG

In the World of Warcraft: Trading Card Game.

  • The 15% healing increase makes Tree a decent cooldown for any occasion.
  • Tree form is especially handy for healing on the move. The ability to spam Spell nature resistnature [Regrowth] while running allows trees to heal while moving.
