Notes

• Druids start with this spell.
• Healing Touch is one of the more powerful, mana efficient healing spells in the game.
• Healing Touch costs 1165 mana at level 80 before reduction by talents.
• With a Glyph of Healing Touch and the proper talents, it is possible to make healing touch a very good, fast cast direct heal. This can dramatically reduce a restoration druids' disability for healing per second. A Healing touch may have 1 sec casting time, and heal for roughly 6.5 times more than the mana cost with talents, glyph, and 1000 bonus healing spellpower.

Tips and tactics

• If you think your target might die while you're casting this spell, cast [Regrowth] first to buy yourself a little time.
• You can also use [Barkskin] to stop interruption from damage. Stun effects will still interrupt the spell.
• Using Nature's Swiftness with this spell results in a massive instant direct heal, useful for emergency situations.
