General Information

About Our Reviewer

This guide has been reviewed and approved by Torty, a theorycrafter in the Dreamgrove Discord server, author of this Restoration Druid spreadsheet, and currently raiding in Pure.

1. Gems

You should use Saber's Eye of Intellect in one socket, and Masterful Shadowruby in all other sockets.

2. Enchants

Slot	Enchantment
Neck	Enchant Neck - Mark of the Trained Soldier
Back	Enchant Cloak - Binding of Intellect Enchant Cloak - Word of Intellect (cheaper)
Rings	Enchant Ring - Binding of Mastery Enchant Ring - Word of Mastery (cheaper)

3. Consumables

Flask of the Whispered Pact should be used for raids along with Potion of Deadly Grace (if not using Feral Affinity) or Potion of the Old War (if using Feral Affinity) and Leytorrent Potion as your potions of choice. The DPS potions can optionally be used as a pre-pot at the beginning of the fight where healing is not very intense, while your Leytorrent Potion is a one time usage potion per fight where you can restore Mana at the cost of not being able to cast or move while the effect lasts.

You should eat Lavish Suramar Feast for the buff to your Intellect (or the cheaper Hearty Feast if you cannot afford the +500 food).

Ancient Healing Potion can be used in place of Healthstones. Ancient Mana Potion can also be used once per fight as an instant Mana restore.

If you can afford it, you should also use the Legion augment rune: Defiled Augment Rune. Note that it now works in Mythic+ dungeons (it did not used to).
