Tree of Life is a Druid spell in the Restoration tree. It requires 41 points; there are not many, if any, valid speccs that do not include Tree of Life Form. While shapeshifted, the Druid gains immunity to polymorph effects but is considered an elemental. This means that the Tree of Life can be banished. Tree of Life Form used to have many restrictions and was almost unusable in PvP, but there have been many changes since the talent was implemented that make it much more appealing and even more viable in PvP.

Notes

Tree of Life Form

Tree of Life is primarily a raid healing form. The druid Has access to the Spell nature healingtouch [Healing Touch] spell in this form, along with all Restoration Family Spells. It gives extremely efficient Heal over Time (HoT) spells due to its inherent bonuses (Inv misc herb felblossom [Lifebloom] has an outstanding health-per-mana ratio), and combined with a wise use of Inv relics idolofrejuvenation [Swiftmend], makes a very solid main healer. When paired with another healer that uses fast-casting direct heals, such as a Paladin, Shaman, or Priest, a druid in Tree of Life form is arguably the best possible raid-wide healer in a raid setting. The aura, combined with the 20% mana cost reduction to HoTs, the ability to use Spell nature lightning [Innervate], and the extra incentive (Spell nature giftofthewaterspirit [Living Spirit] talent, as well as 6% Healing Power Tree of Life aura) to acquire large amounts of spirit gives this form incredible longevity while healing in a raid setting.

Tree of Life Buff benefits the entire raid as of Patch 3.0.2

Tree of Life has amazing survivability against mobs. It has no health bonus like Bear Form, but can have the ability to give 100% Armor contribution increase when points are given for the right resto talent. Tree of Life's can easily outheal all damage caused by multiple mobs several levels higher, while using very little mana. Druids can also Spell nature lightning [Innervate] themselves when in Tree of Life form, so running out of mana is not likely to happen even in a long battle. However, as the Tree can only attack with simple melee attack and has very low damage per second, killing mobs in Tree of Life form is very slow and not recommended.

Against bosses with mind control abilities the Tree of Life form's lack of offensive abilities is an asset. A mind controlled tree of life druid is no threat to anyone in the party; however the Tree of Life may heal the mind controller.

Melee attacks in Tree of Life form use weapon damage and speed with a weapon skill of level*5. Melee attacks will not raise weapon skill while in Tree of Life.

In regards to consumables and items, Tree of Life Form works the same as being in humanoid form. The only exception is that you cannot mount in this form.


All spells within the Restoration family are castable in tree of life as of Patch 3.0.2

Racials:

The Tree of Life aura does stack with multiple druids in Tree of Life form in a single party or Raid. This makes it a bit more beneficial to bring multiple trees to a raid.

This form has animations for dance, cheer, applaud, cry, bow, wave, and sleep emotes.

Talent improvement

  • Improved Tree of Life Form Increases your armor contribution from items while in Tree of Life Form by 33%/66%/100%, and increases your healing spell power by 5%/10%/15% of your spirit while in Tree of Life Form.

Tips and tactics

  • Unlike previously, there is next to no negative consequences for being in Tree of Life form, so if you are wary of running low on mana or not doing enough healing, you don't need to worry about shifting out of tree form.
  • With the talent Improved Tree of Life Form, tree of life becomes more durable in PvP to allow for much more healing power without making yourself too vunerable. The only problem is that you cannot cast any offensive spells in this form.
