Leveling
Leveling outside of dungeons will be extremely challenging for this class. We recommend playing in a group or switching to a DPS spec. Otherwise, fighting groups of mobs will be difficult and leveling itself will take considerably longer.
Your main abilities at early levels will be Living Flame and Emerald Blossom.
Mythic+ Tips
1
Use the combo Echo + Emerald Blossom for quick and powerful healing of the group when it is stacked together.
2
Rewind restores a huge amount of health. Use it if your group took a lot of damage in a short period.
3
Cauterizing Flame removes bleed effects from allies. Try to use it as often as possible.
4
You can quickly teleport to an ally to escape a dangerous area or heal them up with Verdant Embrace.
