On the topic of 5.3, do Treants still not get the damage increase from Nature's Vigil? It'd be a real shame to be practically cookie-cutter to take FoN *and* HotW or else be 'bad'.

I believe this is because it's a waste of a GCD during Incarnation to put up Sunfire since it's not getting the Lunar damage bonus.

Just got our first Animus kill tonight, clutch healing with HotW-Tranquility after Interrupting Jolt is more useful than NV, in my humble opinion.

Another very simple combo, the cooldowns of Barkskin and Cenarion Ward are sufficiently low to combine them for each of Ji-Kun's Quill phases, which again helps your healers out a ton.

'Force and Verve' is physical damage, so whilst you can use AMS on it, it's not actually reducing the damage. We can, however, shift to Bear Form for the armour bonus, if need be.
