Quick question regarding resto mastery

[snugglewump]

Hey everyone,

I am a little bit confused about how harmony works, hopefully someone can help me understand it better.

So our mastery increases our direct heals like regrowth, nourish and healing touch, and after casting a direct heal, it increases our HOTS, correct so far?

Now, say if I cast a HOT on someone (let's call that HOT-A), then I cast a direct heal and proc Harmony, cast another HOT (call it HOT-B) while harmony is in effect. The question is will our mastery benefit HOT-A or HOT-B? Say if harmony fades for whatever reason, will our existing HOTS get weaker?

Thanks in advance!

HOT-B would get the benefit, as those are checked when they are cast, not updated in real time.

Ah, so HOT's that I cast in-between the 10 seconds time frame would benefit from our mastery? and even if harmony is over, the HOT's already on friendly targets would be affected. Thanks!

You're more than welcome.

But between your Regrowths, your Swiftmends, the occasional Healing Touch bomb, or a Nourish to refresh Lifebloom while you sit on your bum, it's pretty easy to keep a high uptime on Harmony, without ever worrying about it falling off.

Yeah, loving our new Harmony and keeping high uptime is fairly easy on most fights.
I also start each fight with an out of combat Nourish on the tank as he runs in, then start covering him in hots.
