Stonebark Question

Here is the text: Reduces the cooldown of Ironbark by 15 sec, and it increases healing from your heal over time effects by 20%.

My question is about the second half of this. Is the 20% all HoT effects?

I believe it is but for pve content this is still not really any good because spring blossoms adds a hot that applies a mastery stack a d I am at 20% mastery anyway so it increases healing the same but on more people and more often.

Imo it is a pvp only choice.

Sorry for the slow reply, but it’s only +20% to HoTs on the target you Ironbark.

i accidentally ran this in m+ dungeons last night, failing to respec from when i was doing arena.

I was pleasantly surprised. Keeping the tank alive during huge pulls was alot easier, left me more time to dps. If the group isn’t retarded with quaking

Stonebark had its uses in season 1. Its value was evident when you really needed to pump out some extra heals on a tank that was getting the life beat out of him.

Today however, with mastery at the levels we’re seeing, and tank damage much more streamlined, it just doesnt make any sense to use it. It does not scale with gear, and spring blossoms produces the same result, if not better, and its on demand.
