Swiftmend is a druid class talent, and is an instant emergency heal.

Tips and tactics

• Swiftmend is the only ability available to a druid to deliver a quick heal on an ally, which makes it very useful. It can be used either to maintain a tank's HP when they are taking damage faster than your HoT can sustain them, or as last minute save when an ally takes sudden or unexpected damage.
• As it is instant, Swiftmend can be cast while moving. This is great for both escaping from monsters and in PvP, such as for flag running in Warsong Gulch.
