Welcome to our Restoration Druid starter guide, which covers everything you need to start playing a new character in Shadowlands. While our other guide pages go into more individual detail, this simple starter guide covers all the basics in one place, whether you're a new Restoration Druid, a returning player to Shadowlands, hardcore, or casual alike, it's the best place to get a beginners overview on the class. Included are basic talent builds, simplified rotations, stats, legendary recommendations, and more to get you started as quickly as possible.
Please keep in mind that this page is meant to get players started quickly as an introduction, and does not contain much in the way of detailed explanations, mechanics, competitive options, gearing, simulation comparisons, or nuance. For more in-depth information, including all those optimizations and more, check out the complete Restoration Druid Guide pages linked in the navigation on the left-hand side of the page, and if you're leveling up in Shadowlands, you can take a look at our

Best Restoration Druid Covenant
Regarding Restoration Druids and covenant choice, there aren't any absolutely abysmal choices of covenant. If you want to choose a particular covenant for whatever reason then that option is open for you as a Restoration Druid. Most reasonable goals within the game can be accomplished regardless of covenant choice. If you're looking to push the absolute highest levels of PvE and PvP content then you're going to likely need to specialize your covenant depending on the content or specific need.
For most players that focus on PvE content, you can't beat the strength and versatility of Night Fae when it comes to covenant choice.
is a strong burst healing cooldown that provides significant in a variety of content including Mythic+ and
. You can also capitalize on
's versatility by shapeshifting to your affinity form and using this as a strong damage cooldown as well. Night Fae also backs you up with strong healing soulbinds and a narrative theme core to Druids.

Best Restoration Druid Legendaries
Assuming you're not looking for a specific legendary for off-spec, I currently recommend the following legendary crafting order:
#1
Craft
for raid.
#2
Craft
for Mythic+
This grants you a strong healing legendary for raid with
and then as a follow up,
, a more M+ oriented legendary. You can mix up the order of #1 and #2 depending on your specific content prioritization. If you prioritize
damage and healing
in Mythic+, then you can select

Restoration Druid Stat Priority
With a
diminishing return on secondary stats
in Shadowlands, we're returning to a more balanced secondary stat setup for raiding Restoration Druids that prioritizes gearing for item level.
Raiding
For raiding, you'll always prioritize item level over specific stats, but haste does tend to gain a small edge due to the beneficial interaction with our best legendary

Item Level
Haste
Critical Strike, Versatility, and Mastery
Mythic+
For Mythic+, you'll still want to gear for item-level, but prioritize more Haste and Mastery when looking at similar item level pieces. Mastery is by far the strongest healing stat in dungeons, but it's worth noting that Mastery does not provide additional damage. If your goal is to provide as much damage as possible in Mythic+ then consider prioritizing other stats over Mastery.

Best Restoration Druid Rotation
This is a simple priority for Resto Druids, though situations and circumstances can vary. If someone in danger of dying, then you should take whatever action necessary to prevent it regardless of how inefficient or where the action falls in this priority. More information about ability priority, important ability explanations, and advanced tips can be found in the
