Restoration Shaman Healing Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Battle for Azeroth (BfA) 8.2
On this page, we list the best gems, enchants, flasks, potions, and food you can get for your Restoration Shaman in World of Warcraft — Battle for Azeroth (BfA) 8.2. We also give budget alternatives.
1. Best Gems for Restoration Shamans
You should use 
Leviathan's Eye of Intellect in one socket, and
Deadly Lava Lazuli (or the cheaper 
Deadly Amberblaze) in
all other sockets.
2. Best Enchants for Restoration Shamans
| Slot | Enchantment |
|---|---|
| Rings | |
| Weapon |
3. Consumables for Restoration Shamans
3.1. Best Flasks and Potions for Restoration
Greater Flask of Endless Fathoms should be used for raids along with
Superior Battle Potion of Intellect. This last potion should be used just
before pulling, so that you can also use 
Potion of Replenishment
during the encounter itself.
Abyssal Healing Potion should be used alongside
Healthstones for emergency healing. 
Coastal Mana Potion
can be used instead of Potion of Replenishment during the fight if you
need instant Mana restoration.
3.2. Best Food for Restoration
You should eat from the 
Famine Evaluator And Snack Table (or the cheaper
Sanguinated Feast / even cheaper 
Galley Banquet) when possible,
and otherwise 
Mech-Dowel's "Big Mech" is the best individual food (
Kul Tiramisu
is a cheap alternative).
3.3. Augment Runes for Restoration
If you can afford it, you should use 
Battle-Scarred Augment Runes to
increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes
available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them
for when you need them.
