Tips for use

• If you are a resurrecting class and the term "DI" is being thrown around, be prepared by getting as far away from any locations the monsters may return to as possible. If you get DI cast on you, the last place you want is to be in the middle of a monster camp when it wears off.

• If you see that another party member is affected by Divine Intervention, attempt to die in a convenient location as fast as possible. If Divine Intervention fades while you are still in combat, there is a chance that the DIed group member will die as well.

• Divine Intervention lasts for 3 minutes, which should be enough for the rest of the group to die in a suitable location. Should the group die and the monsters reset before the full 3 minutes, the DIed group member can cancel Divine Intervention by right-clicking on its buff icon.

• Divine Intervention deaths count as suicides, saving the Paladin from taking durability damage.

• When selecting a target to cast Divine Intervention on, the first choices should be another Paladin, a Priest or a Shaman. Druids would be a secondary choice because their resurrect ability may be on cooldown.

• If you have time, try to give a warning to the target of the spell to move to a suitably safe position. If either of you are going to die imminently, then you should cast the spell as quickly as possible and hope for the best.

• Do not waste a cast of Divine Intervention on a non-resurrecting class.
