Related traits

Druid

• Live Vicariously — When you heal an ally, you are also healed.
• Natural Mender — Increase healing to other allies. Gain astral force each interval while not in celestial avatar form.
• Grace of the Land — Grant boons to allies within the radius of your Celestial Avatar skills.
• Lingering Light — While in Celestial Avatar form, your healing of others is significantly increased. Healing another player with a Celestial Avatar skill reduces the cooldown of Celestial Avatar. Cooldown can only be reduced once per outgoing heal and will occur even if the affected player is at full health.

Notes

• Has no activation time; thus can be cast while other skills are being cast.
• The Light Field activates first and lasts for ~0.66 seconds (the cast time), after which the heal, condition cleanse, and blind are applied.
