Night Fae Restoration Druid Covenant Abilities
Night Fae Druid Class Ability:
万灵之召
The Night Fae Class Ability for Druids of all specializations is
万灵之召
, a 2 minute cooldown that will cast 12 Druid spells over a 4s channel.
While that puts it quite simply, there are a lot of subtleties regarding the implementation of this spell and caveats to note:
7-8 spells will be deterministically from your current shapeshift. For non-shapeshifted Restoration Druids, this consists of 1-2
野性成长
s, 1-2
迅捷治愈
s, and the remaining 4-6 spells a mix of
回春术
and
愈合
.
There's a 15-20% chance per complete channel of
万灵之召
that one of the spells selected will be a
繁盛
resulting in even greater throughput.
万灵之召
can be channeled on the move in all forms.
万灵之召
has no mana cost meaning it's completely free to cast.
The
迅捷治愈
s cast by
万灵之召
do not require a HoT on an ally to be cast nor do they consume the HoT.
The
迅捷治愈
s cast by
万灵之召
can trigger
丛林之魂
if talented; however, because the spells are fairly random there's no guarantee which subsequent heals get empowered, but it does improve the overall throughput.
The
迅捷治愈
s cast by
万灵之召
cannot trigger the HoT extension provided by
翡翠灌注
.
万灵之召
, when channeled in one of our affinity shapeshifts, can equate to a fairly sizable burst damage ability. Notably, for
枭兽形态
with
平衡亲和
we always cast a
星辰坠落
.
As far burst cooldowns go, this ranks pretty high up there. Another tool in our arsenal that helps us respond to incoming AoE burst damage is fantastic and it's not bad for single target healing either.
万灵之召
is versatile, consistent, and efficient; all things you want as a healer. Whether you want the healing or the damage in either single target or AoE form,
万灵之召
will deliver and you'll generally know what you're getting out of each channel with some slight variations. There is no 'stars align' scenario that you need to rely on or a type of content it feels weak in. You'll have another answer for the most dangerous burst damage at no mana expense, and it's all in a moderate 2 minute cooldown.
Night Fae Conduit for
万灵之召
元素汇流
offers a flat % healing and damage increase while channeling
万灵之召
for the 4s. The spells cast do not snapshot this increased healing for the remainder of their duration so only the healing done in the 4s window is increased. Despite that downside,
元素汇流
is still very much worth the potency slot.
Restoration Druid Conduit Guide
Night Fae Druid Signature Ability:
灵魂变形
As someone who adored
野性位移
, it's nice to see this come back as an option, albeit with a longer cooldown and a shorter blink. Blinks and teleports are universally valuable; however mobility isn't really a weakness Restoration Druids have struggled with so it won't be as valuable for us as it would be for a Death Knight. You likely won't be coming up with skips for such a limited 15 yard blink, but you may be able to skip over a few mechanics here and there. Comes with a cosmetic collecting minigame based around which animal form you take during
灵魂变形
.
Two of the three soulbinds modify this in some way; we will get into that later. However, on its own, it is an ability you typically will use for mobility when
猛虎冲刺
/
急奔
and
野性冲锋
are all down or you need the blink specifically.
Night Fae Exclusive Legendary for Restoration Druids
NEW Night Fae Legendary
天界万灵
:
万灵之召
's cooldown is reduced by 50% and its duration is reduced by 25%.
万灵之召
has an increased chance to use an exceptional spell or ability.
天界万灵
Empowers our burst healing windows by giving us greater access to
万灵之召
albeit with 9 instead of 12 spells but with a greater chance that one of those spells cast will be a
繁盛
. With
天界万灵
equipped, 1 out of every 2 channels of
万灵之召
has a roughly a ~85% chance to grant a
繁盛
. Additionally, we still gain the maximum 16 stacks of
心能转移
via Niya's
林地复兴
trait or the full 25s duration of Dreamweaver's
繁华原野
for each
万灵之召
cast which should be factored into the power of this legendary.
Other Legendary Interactions for Night Fae Restoration Druids
母亲之树的回忆
can trigger from
野性成长
s cast by
万灵之召
. A
回春术
or
愈合
cast by
万灵之召
can benefit from and consume the
母亲之树的回忆
proc multiplying the heal to 3 other allies.

Best Night Fae Restoration Druid Soulbinds
Best Night Fae Restoration Druid Max Renown 80 Soulbind
Conduits are socketed in order of highest priority from top to bottom in order to facilitate the greatest benefit when empowering conduit rows from renown. Please see our Restoration Druid Conduit Guide for more information on Conduits including Empowered Conduits.
Restoration Druid Conduit Guide
Restoration Druid's choice of soulbind for Night Fae at Renown 80 remains Dreamweaver. The capstone trait,
梦境探索者
, for Dreamweaver is exceptional and easy to maintain at max stacks with our HoTs.
Night Fae Restoration Druid Covenant Rotation Changes
As usual, this page only highlights the specific use case of the class and signature abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to check the other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:
Restoration Druid Rotation Guide
万灵之召
For healing,
万灵之召
should ideally be used nearly on cooldown as a response to significant incoming AoE burst damage to quickly heal up allies before subsequent has a chance to cause deaths. As with
宁静
, be mindful of other healer's raid cooldowns as to get the maximum value out of
万灵之召
.
When prioritizing damage,
万灵之召
should be cast on cooldown or in conjunction with
野性之心
while in your affinity shapeshift. Consider holding for large packs of enemies when you want to make the most of the extra AoE damage from abilities like
星辰坠落
.
灵魂变形
On its own,
灵魂变形
is an ability you typically will use for mobility when
猛虎冲刺
/
急奔
and
野性冲锋
are all down or you need the blink specifically. If you select the
不休不疲
Niya trait and are injured then you can prioritize
灵魂变形
over other mobility options.
Night Fae Restoration Druid Talent Builds
丛林之魂
can boost the overall throughput of
万灵之召
due to the
迅捷治愈
s cast by
万灵之召
triggering
丛林之魂
; however, do note that because the order of spells cast during
万灵之召
are fairly random there's no guarantee on which subsequent heals get empowered.
Restoration Druid Talent Guide
Night Fae Restoration Druid Gearing Differences
Prioritizing higher item level pieces will still be the proper way to gear as a Night Fae Restoration Druid. Secondary stats will still follow the more balanced approach to gearing when considering similar item level pieces.
Night Fae Restoration Druid Soulbinds Explained
Night Fae have access, across all classes and specs, to the same three soulbinds:
Niya
,
Dreamweaver
and
Korayn
. They are the NPCs you complete the zone story with, and allow you to "attune" yourself to them to gain access to a tree of upgrades centered around your base toolkit (through Conduits) and covenant abilities (through special, game-wide traits).
This tree progressively unlocks based on completion steps (such as finishing the campaign) and your renown level with the Night Fae covenant.
We've summarized the optimal traits for each soulbind along with potential conduits to slot in below. Do bear in mind that finesse conduit choice is largely personal preference. For more information on Conduits see our Restoration Druid Conduit Guide.
Niya grants you a few impactful traits:
林地复兴
provides an overlapping mastery and % max health buff that can be quickly bolstered by casting
万灵之召
. It's not a ton of stats but is a nice boost we don't get early in other soulbinds
尼娅的工具:草药
provides a 10s 5% haste buff for a target of your healing at roughly 3 rppm. You likely won't see more than one of these up at a time. It's a nice way to buff allies, but the increase is fairly minuscule.
联结之心
provides 50% more mastery and health for the first 5s of each stack of
林地复兴
as well as 2% max health heal to 5 nearby allies on proc. Currently this trait is bugged providing it's benefits for the full duration of
林地复兴
instead of just the first 5s.
In addition to this Niya modifies your
灵魂变形
in one of two possible ways:
不休不疲
gives you a HoT for 5% every 3 seconds during it, or a 20% heal over the entire duration. Strong for personal healing and incentivizes use of
灵魂变形
over other forms of mobility.
保持移动
provides a flat 15s cooldown reduction to
灵魂变形
and an additional second off whenever you defeat an enemy. Healing any ally that damages these enemies does count as you defeating an enemy, so no damage from you is required.
I generally recommend the following soulbind tree and conduit placement for Niya:
Dreamweaver provides a couple of interesting nodes specifically as a healer:
灵茧守护者
- One of the premiere traits of Dreamweaver and while it may not contribute much to throughput a cheat death is
strong
utility. Unfortunately,
灵茧守护者
has a few more drawbacks than the normal
装死
, such as the complete immobilization while regenerating in the wildseed. However, if the gambit pays off and you're able to stay alive you'll be doing significantly more healing than if you were dead. At the very least this can save your allies a battle resurrection. Do not underestimate how good this trait can be.
灵茧之力
- The shields we can create via overhealing can be quite powerful especially in being able to lower the impact of burst AoE damage on your allies. As Restoration Druids, we tend to overheal a fair amount just by the very nature of HoTs.
蝴蝶效应
- If you're always surrounded by allies or just want to help your allies contribute more damage then
蝴蝶效应
could be a viable choice. As long as you're able to activate the trait then you can think about it as a personal ~1.5% versatility trait that also minorly helps your allies. Not fantastic comparatively, especially when combined with the endurance conduit slot below.
繁华原野
- A fantastic boost to throughput via casting
万灵之召
. Because you typically cast
万灵之召
to cover incoming burst this definitely helps to further improve that. Fortunately, the duration of this trait scales with the cooldown of class abilities so ours at 2 minutes gives roughly a 25s buff. Be aware that it does make you a bit more immobile being stuck to a particular area for 25s.
梦境探索者
- Provides a nice healing boost to targets that you're continually healing. Can be kept up fairly easily with our HoTs.
I generally recommend the following soulbind tree and conduit placement for Dreamweaver:
Choosing Korayn grants access to the following notable traits:
荒猎团战术
- The healing increase for low health targets is valuable. It's much more likely to save a life; however, this increase does nothing during the majority of time that allies aren't below 35% nor does it do anything to prevent allies from getting to that point. That's where this trait falls behind. The damage buff can be a nice personal damage increase if you prioritize damage,especially in Mythic+.
争先打击
- The critical strike chance is huge but the buff is so short and requires a constant influx of new enemies that it's very difficult to get a lot of value out of this one.
狂野狩猎策略
- Grants additional healing to high health allies when you activate
荒猎团战术
by healing a low health ally. It creates this back and forth effect of healing low and high health targets. Unfortunately fairly weak compared to what we get in the other two soulbinds.
In addition to this Korayn modifies your
灵魂变形
in one of two possible ways:
荒猎号角
grants allies a 10% movement speed increase while in
灵魂变形
. This isn't bad but it overlaps with
狂奔怒吼
.
荒猎冲锋
turns
灵魂变形
into a charge when used out of combat. We really don't want to be the first person into an encounter, so it's not a great choice.
I generally recommend the following soulbind tree and conduit placement for Korayn:
Double Legendaries for Night Fae Restoration Druid
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Night Fae Restoration Druid even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.

Note sure about this guide but I guess it's kinda hard to socket a Warlock Conduit into a Restoration Druid Soulbind.
