Tree of Life Shapeshift
28% of base Mana
Instant cast
Transforms the Druid into the Tree of Life Form. While in this form you increase healing received by 25% of your total Spirit for all party members within 45 yards, your movement speed is reduced by 20%, and you can only cast Swiftmend, Innervate, Nature's Swiftness, Rebirth and healing over time spells, but the mana cost of these spells is reduced by 20%.

The act of shapeshifting frees the caster of Polymorph and Movement Impairing effects. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These questions might seem kind of confusing but please bear with me. (no pun intended)

Okay, so the TOL aura is 25% of your total spirit. Just to make this easy, let's say you have 500 Spirit.

Say you have a priest in another group healing the main tank party and you put the ToL druid in with the main tanks. How much does that priest's healing numbers on the tank party actually increase?

Does it increase that priest's bonus healing only when he's healing the tank party?

Does it increase the final healing numbers on the tank party by a flat rate (i.e. 125 in this case) no matter what class, spec nor their +healing?

Or does it increase that priest's final healing numbers by '125 scaled up for bonus healing', only when healing the main tank party?

I thought it was just a flat rate, but someone else told me that it scales up with bonus healing, and i really am curious. It's great that it's even just a flat rate cause in a raid, 25% of spirit per heal is quite a bit when you add it all up.

Scaling up with bonus healing could possibly be a tad OP imo. If anyone knows the answer to this, i would appreciate it very much.

In your example, it works just like another +125 healing gear would on the 5 people in the Tree's party. Any healing spells cast on those 5 individuals and them only will be affected.

Heals against that target function as if the healer had an additional +125 healing on their gear, and is affected by all coefficients on healing spells and other modifiers to healing (Quick Recovery, Fel Armor, Mortal Strike). It's exactly like Amplify Magic's +healing bonus, actually.

wow, that is excellent. That is much more of a benefit than i thought it was. Thank you much for clearing that up.
