'''Riptide''' is the 51 point talent in the [[Shaman]]'s [[Shaman talents#Restoration|Restoration]] tree. It is an [[instant]] cast healing spell with a [[Heal over Time|heal over time]]. If the shaman casts [[Chain Heal]] on the target while the Riptide buff is still up, it will consume the heal over time spell and give the chain heal a 25% increase in healing.

Similar to a [[Druid]]'s [[Regrowth]] spell, Riptide is both a direct healing spell and a heal over time spell. The direct healing part of the spell can [[Spell critical strike|crit]], but this will not increase the healing done by the HoT component.

  +
== Other Notable NPCs ==
−
The direct healing component of the spell heals for an amount comparable to [[Lesser Healing Wave]], at a slightly higher mana cost. With the HoT component included, Riptide is more mana efficient than Lesser Healing Wave.

==Talent improvement==
 
−
* [[Purification]] increases the healing done by the spell by 10%.
 
−  
−
* [[Tidal Focus]] reduces the mana cost by 5%. [[Improved Water Shield]] returns mana every time the spell crits, further increasing mana efficiency.
 
−  
−
* [[Tidal Mastery]] increases the critical effect chance of the spell by 5%. [[Thundering Strikes]] increases that by another 5%. [[Blessing of the Eternals]] adds a further 4%.
 
−  
−
* [[Ancestral Awakening]] allows the spell to heal a secondary target for 30% of the initial heal if the spell crits. Note that this only affects the direct heal and not the heal over time part.
 
−  
−
* [[Ancestral Healing]] causes the spell to increase the target's armor when it crits.
 
−  
−
* [[Tidal Waves]] causes Riptide to decrease the casting time of your next two Lesser Healing Wave or [[Healing Wave]] spells if cast within 15 seconds.
 
−  
−
* [[Healing Grace]] reduces the threat caused by the spell by 15%, and gives a 30% chance for the heal over time buff to resist [[dispel]] mechanics.
