[edit] Overview

Resto druid? O please, those guys are so last season...

Renew is a Heal over Time (HoT) spell. Renew is a strong heal, and one of the more mana efficient heals the priest has available. Being by nature a HoT, it has slow moving threat, so it can play as a useful opening heal while your tank gains aggro or serves as a solid heal while aggro is bouncing.

[edit] Improved Renew

Previously there was a minor disadvantage to not taking this talent. Prior to the 2.0 patch WoW's buff system did not allow for multiple HoTs of the same spell from different players. Thus a spell such as Renew would overwrite a buff of the same spell if the spell being cast most recently was more powerful. Because of this, players who had not taken this talent were sometimes unable to refresh the duration of Renew as they could not overwrite the renew of a player who had taken Improved Renew. However as of the 2.0 patch, HoTs from different sources will now stack. For example, if two Priests each cast Renew on another player, the target will be healed by both Renews simultaneously regardless of the magnitude of either spell.
