I. Me rambling
I’m writing this because the old guide got deleted for some reason. This is not meant to be a set-in-stone you MUST do this sort of guide. It’s for fresh 80s who want to heal and need some basic info. Before you get into raiding things can be pretty flexible, so don’t take what I say here to be an absolute.

Works in progress: 3.3 rep gear


II. Healing stats
This section has been adapted from the original sticky on this topic, made by Melias of Thunderhorn. Some of the stat conversions have been taken from the Restoration Itemization thread on the EJ website (http://elitistjerks.com/f73/t37578-restoration_itemization/).

Spell power
While extremely rare prior to level 58, this stat becomes very plentiful in Outlands quest rewards. Good thing too, because as a healer, this is your bread and butter stat. As a tree, spell power should always be your primary stat. More spell power means that every single one of your healing spells becomes more powerful, dramatically increasing your out put. It is not uncommon for Resto druids to stack large quantities of spell power.

Spirit
Another staple druid stat. Properly specced (meaning Living Spirit, Intensity, Kings and imp Mark of the Wild (MotW), imp Tree of Life (ToL)), 15% of your spirit becomes +healing and an absolutely enormous amount of mana regeneration. This stat only sees its mana regeneration benefits if you have the talent "intensity" (which should be included in every single serious healing build).

An important concept is the "Five Second Rule." Simply put, as soon as you spend mana , your normal mana regeneration is reduced to 50% of its full value. This time is called being "In the five second rule" (abr IFSR). If you do not spend any mana for five seconds, your mana regeneration returns to 100%. This time is called "out of the five second rule" (abr OFSR). You will remain OFSR until you spend mana. OFSR is sometimes referred to as "out of casting" or "ooc" as well (not to be confused with omen of clarity). OOC does NOT stand for "out of combat" as combat has nothing whatsoever to do with your mana regen.

Please note this subtle difference, spending mana is NOT the same as casting a spell. The IFSR time starts and ends when the mana is spent at the END of the cast. Certain abilities (like the omen of clarity) reduce the mana cost of your next spell by 100%. That said, under "normal" circumstances you should never, ever leave the FSR as a resto druid. Ever. There is always something to be cast on someone assuming the content you are doing is not trivial.

If you find yourself consistently running out of mana, its time to get more spirit. Be advised, do NOT stack spirit too much at the expense of spell power. All the mana regeneration in the world will not save your party or raid members from weak sauce heals.

Mana per 5 seconds (abr Mp5)
Once the end all and be all of mana regeneration, buffs to spirit have pretty much relegated this stat to a back seat roll. Unlike spirit, this mana regeneration is always on, regardless if you are IFSR or OFSR. While this regen is strictly inferior to regeneration from spirit, if a piece of gear has both spirit and Mp5 on it then that piece of gear will have more overall regen than a similar piece of gear with only spirit.

Crit Rating
Crit affects the following spells/talents:
Nourish
Regrowth (application, not HoT)
Healing Touch
Swiftmend
Lifebloom's bloom
Living Seed
Nature's Grace
Rejuv ticks if you have 4pcT9

Crit isn't terrible or 100% pointless for us like it used to be, because there is still a fair bit of nourish spam that happens, and with a lot of raiding trees having 4pcT9. However it's not a stat you should worry about at all. If it comes on your gear great. If not, then not. The Natural Perfection talent can be a decent point dump but otherwise it's not a very good PvE talent.

All in all, if you can get crit rating without making any sacrifices to spell power or regeneration, take it, but this is not a stat that should be placed high on your priority list.

Intellect
Each point of intellect provides 15 mana (on a typical 8 minute fight with Kings and IMotW this can be converted to 0.175 mp5), and a laughable amount of spell crit (~108 intellect for 1% crit at 80). Intellect also provides mana regeneration via a complicated equation involving your spirit and int. In addition Intellect provides regeneration through Replenishment. With that said, you should shy away from gemming or enchanting for intellect. This is not saying that intellect is a bad stat that druids would be better off without, rather the base intellect found on all resto druid gear is enough to meet our needs.

Hit Rating
Exclusively a dps stat. This is 100% useless to a healer. Gear with spell hit should ideally never be on your healing set, because your healing spells cannot be resisted. Never, ever, never, never ever out roll a dps class on gear with spell hit.

That being said, if there's no competition for the item and it's an upgrade for you in other stats, then don't be afraid to take it. An upgrade is an upgrade, even if it's not ideal. My gear list here however does not include any pieces with hit.

Haste
Haste is a weird, and confusing stat. For every ~33 haste (at level 80, this stat changes as you level), your casting speed is reduced by 1%, causing you to cast faster. While it doesn't directly buff your output, in large quantities, your cast times can drop from 2 seconds, to 1.8 or 1.7 seconds. This means you get heals out faster, but it also means you get more heals out over a given time frame. Druids mostly use haste to reduce our global cooldowns (GCD), which are at 1.5s by default and cannot be reduced to lower than 1s.

This stat is only as good, so long as you are spam casting. Haste serves you no good if you are casting spells only periodically. Also, because you have to be spam casting to see an appreciable benefit to your output, you are actually spending more mana than you would be without haste. So at early gear levels be wary of going nuts with haste. You may find yourself going OOM.

III. Spec
Required Talents: There is no getting around it, no build misses any of these talents. Required to make a restoration spec function and as such should be included in every single serious healing build.

Genesis (Balance)
Natural Splender (Balance)
imp MotW
Intensity
Omen Of Clarity
Natural Shapeshifter
Imp Rejuvenation
Gift Of Nature
Empowered Touch
Living Spirit
Swiftmend
Empowered Rejuvenation
Tree of Life (and imp Tree of Life)

Very good but not quite required talents: these talents are very good and you would be crazy not to pick them up, but they don't have quite the necessity as the talents listed above.

Nature's Swiftness
Gift of the Earthmother
Wild Growth
Nature's Bounty

Optional Talents: point fillers, situational use talents and marginal healing benefit talents.

Moonglow
Nature's Focus
Tranquil Spirit
Improved Tranquility
Living Seed
Revitalize
Nature's Grace (Balance)
Celestial Focus (Balance)

Suggested spec:
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#0VG0zZZf0fuwugiuVhsVo:LkZzm

This spec is only good for 5 mans. Once you step into a raid setting it becomes crap. Also, this spec isn’t set in stone. There are several places where things can be changed around (see above list of talent rankings). But in general, the spec has a lot of regen and mana efficiency talents in it, which is something most druids will need when just hitting 80, but will quickly decrease in usefulness. It also includes imp tranquility, which can be really useful when running heroics with people at your own (low) gear level, because it’s a pretty nice oh *!*@ button.

As far as glyphs go, the 3rd slot can be whatever you want. Regrowth, LB, innervate are all decent options. WG glyph is pretty useless in a 5 man setting, unless you really want to make sure it hits everyone even when there are pets present or something like that.

IV. Gear List

Some answered questions
Why is there cloth on this list?
Because sometimes cloth items are either easier to get or superior to the leather items available. If there are leather items of comparable ilevel, obtainability and stat allotment to cloth items, then I tended to only list the leather item. If I found that the cloth items were better then I tended to list them both (except for gear purchased from vendors, in which case I only listed the better item).

Be aware that if you're pugging via the new LFG system you will NOT be able to roll need on cloth items, so make sure to discuss a loot strategy with your group beforehand if you're after some cloth items.

What sort of stats got priority?
In general, I picked items that had some sort of regen, and if there were two similar items, but with either haste or crit, I chose the haste item. I chose items with gem slots over those without gem slots. However, you should keep in mind not every piece on this list is 100% ideal for resto; they’re merely meant to be stepping stones to get you ready for raiding.

Is this list comprehensive?
No. See above for why.

Is the gear list ranked in any way?
No, it's just the order in which I searched for things. But gear from the new instances do tend to be at the bottom of the lists, if you're trying to find those quickly.

What does this list include/not include?
Includes:
Cloth and leather gear
Drops from normal and heroic 5 person instances
Crafted items
World Drops
BoE raid drops
Items from emblem vendors (heroism – conquest)
Reputation gear

Does not include:
PvP gear
BoP raid gear
Tier Gear
Emblem of triumph gear

I haven’t included emblem of triumph gear, with the exception of the idol, because basically if you’re gathering enough triumph emblems to be able to buy much gear then you’re probably raiding.

As far as gems go, there’s no need to put epic gems in gear you’re going to replace soon (unless you really want to) but if you’re trying to get raid ready you should be using blue quality gems at the very least. For the time being, any yellow gems used should probably be sp/int (although you shouldn’t need to use very many of these as there won’t be very many really good socket bonuses in low level gear). Sp/haste can be a reasonable option at higher gear levels, or also once 3.3 hits. But for now I’m sticking with suggesting Luminous for yellow gems.
