Healing Stream Totem

Healing Stream Totem is a totem that heals all party members within 30 yards.

Tips and tactics
Certain raid encounters temporarily increase your healing done. Placing a Healing Stream Totem at such a time can result in the totem healing for a very large amount each tick. As an example, the Serenity beam on the Netherspite encounter can increase the healing done by Healing Stream Totem by up to 250%, lasting the full five minutes.

Healing Stream Totem is a useful way of healing small amounts of health lost in between fights. It is also useful for quickly healing up a group after it has been buffed with Prayer of Fortitude or similar spells.

As Mana Spring Totem does not stack with Blessing of Might, a shaman can choose Healing Stream Totem if there are plenty of Paladin buffs.
