I think I am goin to add this to my "Must Have" talent along with Nature's Focus.

If you havent gotten a chance to use this, strongly suggest you do, Its so useful when soloing or grouped. I can be fighting mobs 2-3 lvls above me and end the fight with full health and usually 85-90% mana. Perfect for a dagger =)

Sadly I could see this talent being nerfed in the future, it procs quite frequently.

The one question I have is that whether or not Omen of Clarity
disappears once the first clearcasting state occurs, or if it lasts
the full duration and can have multiple clearcasting instances
occur. If I can clearcast multiple times, I'll forget aboout Innervate
and go 30/21 in Restoration/Balance for it and Nature's Grace

It only one cast per proc...with Omen, its about the only time I cast Regrowth, if if procs early in a fight, Regrowth for free to go back to full health and now you have 80/tic for 21 secs.(atleast 80ish at 43). Or you can wait if you are below half health and it procs just cast Healing...and since you most likely have Focus, you just got a free complete heal.

It basically kills ALOT of downtime before of the free healing. Or if it proced on say one of your last swings...use it for a free starfire on your next pull.

I am have 11 in Balance just for it, and the rest is going into Restoration, maybe a few left overs will go back to Swift shifting.

I've also read of people meleeing to proc Clearcasting, then following it up with Tranquility for a free 500-1200 mana group heal. Mmmmm.

Yea...its pretty nice with Tranquility, dont like the 10 min cooldown though for it =/

Yeah, that'd be great if Tranq didn't suck. How often is more than one person down enough HP in a situation in which you'll be able to channel it?

Tranquility works wonders in the Thermaplugg fight when you
have an idiot in charge of pipe-closing. :)

Yea..Tranq has it moments...using it more and more as I level up. Just wish it wasnt 10 min cooldown, 5 would be much more better.

Have to come back and correct myself here. With OOC proc, Tranq is pretty nice. Works well on those instance bosses with big AEs.

Someone in another post said that omen will proc in cat/bear form. Is this true?

Hmmm.not that I have noticed...because you are no longer swing the buffed weapon.

It was from the thread on "What is the best thing about druids" where you said:

I usually grasp, pull with faerie, moonfire, shift to cat, by then the mob has hit me once and rooted, step back a sec to get full energy, spam a 4 or 5 combo point move, shift back and usually omen has proced before the end of the fight to complete heal me..next!

It seemed like you were saying that omen procced while in cat form, but I think we're in agreement that this won't happen. It would be nice if it did.

It will be interesting when I get omen to see if the benefit from being in caster form, using dots and melee, and having it proc overcomes the downside of decreased melee dps of cat or bear form.

ahh sorry if i wrote it that way...I mean after the 4-5 combo from cat, I drop the form and conitinue the rest of the fight with weapon melee...and OOC usually procs.

Personally I can do without the little dps increase in forms if I can cast and get OOC to proc. I usually use my 29.6 dps dagger over my 40 dps 2h mace simply because of the OOC procs, I can usually keep moonfire and heal myself for minimum mana useage.

Yes, I like using a nice 1h weapon for OoC, and also because I can put something in my offhand to improve stats and whatnot...


oh.. and I had to use this ....
