Restoration Shaman Healing Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Shadowlands 9.1

In general, you should be using gems and enchants according to the stat weights shown to you by https://wowanalyzer.com, especially now that diminishing returns exist.

However, to simplify things, Critical Strike enchants and gems will, in a vacuum always be a good option for maximizing throughput as a Restoration Shaman. If you PvP or care about your survivability too (say, in Mythic Raiding), go with Versatility, instead!

Use Deadly Jewel Cluster (raw throughput) or Versatile Jewel Cluster (throughput + survivability) on the rest of your sockets. Cheaper options are Versatile Jewel Doublet and Deadly Jewel Doublet.

Information about Domination Shards can be found on our Gear page:

Weapon	Enchant Weapon - Celestial Guidance

For a better understanding of why these specific enchants and gems are recommended, check out detailed stats guide below.

Spectral Flask of Power is the flask of choice in Shadowlands. Use Potion of Spiritual Clarity to regenerate Mana if you can afford the downtime. Potion of Spectral Intellect or Potion of Divine Awakening are strong throughput options if you do not need the Mana, and Spiritual Mana Potion is the emergency / budget Mana recovery option.

Potion of Sacrificial Anima is worth it if you can afford the health loss and use it to cast expensive spells, namely Chain Heal, but in most situations the other potions will do better.

Spiritual Healing Potion does not share the same cooldown as Healthstones or Phial of Serenity, and should be used for extra emergency healing.

If possible, use the large feast ( Feast of Gluttonous Hedonism), otherwise, use Critical Strike or Versatility food ( Spinefin Souffle and Fries or Steak a la Mode). Butterscotch Marinated Ribs and Sweet Silvergill Sausages are the cheap options.

You can also use Shadowcore Oil for extra DPS or Embalmer's Oil for extra healing, as well as Heavy Desolate Armor Kit for extra survivability.

Tome of the Still Mind are also useful to carry around in order to swap talents on the fly.

If you can afford it, you should use Veiled 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.
