How to play at level 30

Your heal loop

Press the first one that is ready.

  1. Rejuvenation Keep up · 12 sec

    Keep it on whoever is taking damage; it lasts 12 sec.

    36% of your healing
  2. Regrowth Keep up · 21 sec

    Keep it on whoever is taking damage; it lasts 21 sec.

    44% of your healing
  3. Healing Touch Filler

    Cast it with the mana and time left.

    20% of your healing

The first 30 seconds

When to press each one from the pull. The blue line under a press is the global cooldown (1.5 sec) or cast it holds: nothing else on the global cooldown can go until it ends, so of two that are ready together the higher one goes first.
