Spirit Bond is a Beast Mastery talent for hunters. Every ten seconds, the hunter gains 1% of their max health per rank, up to two ranks. The talent is constantly active as long as the hunter's pet is alive. The healing effect also applies to the pet.

  • Note: Originally this healed you for a small amount when your pet hitted the target, and it lasted only 30 seconds.

Functionality

Uses

  • This helps you and your pet stay alive.
  • At higher levels with more Stamina, it begins to count almost as much as a free tic of Mend Pet.
  • It seems to generate some threat on your pet. (You shouldnt have taken any damage for the tic to affect you, thus removing the possibility of gaining any aggro from this buff.)

Limitations

  • It may keep you alive, but it doesn't stop you or your pet from getting killed.
  • Sadly it does not provide a large portion of health returned. Many Hunters say it would be worth investing two points in if it returned more of their health. 5/6% seems to be a general consensus of what the Rank 2 of Spirit Bond should be.

Range

  • Self & pet. There is a point where it breaks off but it's not specified in game.
  • Generally only breaks when you and your pet are separated to the point of the pet despawning, you mounting up on a mount, or your pet being killed.
