Notes

While Blessing of Light claims to add "up to" a certain amount to specific healing spells, in practice it actually adds the full amount to those spells. That is to say, it does not behave like +heal gear (which uses similar language), which adds an amount that depends on the casting time of the spell. If you compare Blessing of Light (Rank 4) with +heal gear, it's the equivalent of +440.4 for Flash of Light, and +777.7 for Holy Light.

Tips and Tactics

A great use for this Blessing is to put it on your tanking allies. Your healing spells will be more efficient and will help save the mana of other healing classes.

Greater Blessing

As of patch 1.9 paladins now can use Greater Blessings. This includes a [Greater Blessing of Light] which can be learned (purchased) from the Class Trainer. Each Greater Blessing affects all players of the targetted class within your party or raid and lasts for 15 minutes. Each Greater Blessing you cast requires the reagent  [Symbol of Kings] which can be bought at any reagent vendor.
