How to heal dungeons at level 45

Your heal loop

Press the first one that is ready.

  1. Rejuvenation Rank 7 Keep up · 12 sec

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

    36% of your healing
  2. Regrowth Rank 6 Keep up · 21 sec

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

    42% of your healing
  3. Swiftmend Every 15 sec

    Use it whenever it is ready, every 15 sec.

    10% of your healing
  4. Healing Touch Rank 8 Filler

    Cast it with the mana and time left.

    13% 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.
