Restoration Druid Healing Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — The War Within (11.1.5)
On this page, we list the best gems, enchants, flasks, potions, and food you can get for your Restoration Druid, based on your stat priority. We also give budget alternatives. This page is updated for World of Warcraft — The War Within (11.1.5).
If you were looking for WotLK Classic content, please refer to our WotLK Classic Restoration Druid gems and enchants.
Foreword
In general, you should be using Haste enchants for pretty much all content. For the purpose of gaining more stats, we recommend using mixed stats gems since they provide slightly more than single stat ones.
Best Gems and Enchants for Restoration Druids
You will be able to use one Blasphemite gem. Its main purpose is to provide
Intellect, the secondary effects are not that important. The three possible
options are Culminating (Critical effect), Elusive (Movement Speed), and
Insightful (maximum Mana). Critical effect only provides half the benefit for
heals; maximum Mana is not useful because we have no Mana scaling at all.
Therefore, we recommend using Elusive Blasphemite.
For the other gems, you should try to maximise the movement speed effect while
not sacrificing too much. Because Crit is not good for either Mythic+ or raiding,
you should only use 3 different types of gems. Masterful Emerald,
Quick Onyx and
Quick Sapphire are the ones to pick. After you have
these 3 and Blasphemite, you can continue using
Masterful Emerald.
Best Corruption Enchants for Restoration Druid in The War Within
Greater Rune of the Void Ritual is the best corruption enchant. It is the only
one that does not provide pure damage, which makes the choice fairly obvious.

Enchant Weapon - Stormrider's Fury is a better choice for higher
throughput content, while
Enchant Weapon - Authority of Fiery Resolve
will perform better when damage is lower.
To better understand why these specific enchants and gems are advised, use our Stats page.
Consumables for Restoration Druids
Best Flasks and Potions for Restoration
Flask of Tempered Swiftness or
Flask of Tempered Mastery
should be used for raids along with
Algari Mana Potion as your potion of choice. If the fights are
short or you have access to a lot of external Mana, you can pop
Tempered Potion.
For Healing Potions, you will mainly use Algari Healing Potion. Also,
do not forget
Healthstones for emergency healing.
Best Food for Restoration
Use a personal food Beledar's Bounty. This is your best food, because
it provides more Haste. You can eat large feast (
Feast of the Midnight Masquerade)
if it is provided for free and you want to save money.
Other Consumables for Restoration
Make sure you apply Algari Mana Oil to your weapon.
Crystallized Augment Rune is the only other consumable worth mentioning.
Use it whenever possible for extra stats.
