A Restoration set is healing power, Intellect and a little crit, mostly from crafted cloth and leather. Its average item level on a one-minute single-boss fight is 61.1. Leatherworkers make its helm, legs and cloak, all of which bind on equip, and the relic and two trinkets are the same on nearly every fight.

Pre-raid gear

Each slot lists its runners-up and what each would cost you in healing per second on this fight. Where it says "level", the difference is smaller than the simulation can measure, so either item will do.

Off hand and relic

Lei of the Lifegiver holds the off hand on one minute: 40 healing and 5 MP5 from a vendor. Every relic scores the same here, so the Totem of the Storm in this set is a tie, and it only adds lightning damage. The set has no spare mana to save, so the Tidal Totem's cheaper Healing Waves buy almost nothing.

Trinkets

Talisman of Ascendance comes from an Eastern Plaguelands quest and binds when picked up. Once a minute it adds up to 75 healing to each of your next five heals, stacking. The next trinket costs 38.2 HPS.

Some of that gap is the simulator's doing: the item's buff ends after six spells, but the simulator keeps the stacks for the whole 20 seconds.

Serenity Field is sold by Pix Xizzix: 42 healing, and 72 Spirit for 15 seconds on use. The next trinket costs 10.7 HPS.

Head, legs and back

Living Crown and Ironfeather Leggings are made by leatherworkers and bind on equip. The next helm costs 17.6 HPS.

Hide of the Wild is another Leatherworking craft that binds on equip, in every set. The next cloak costs 7.1 HPS.

Weapon

Charstone Dirk drops from Princess Theradras in Maraudon and binds when picked up. It carries 116 healing, and the next one-hander costs 19.3 HPS. It is a dagger, so a Dwarf's Mace Specialization does nothing with it.

What the one-minute sets change

The one-minute sets trade Intellect for healing power. Mooncloth Shoulders from Tailoring, Dryad's Wrist Bindings from a vendor and Blessed Band of Light from Pix Xizzix come in on every one. Vigilant Watcher's Signet still takes Exalted with The Watchers.

Enchants

• Helm and legs: Lesser Arcanum of Voracity and Arcanum of Focus. The search mostly picks Lesser Arcanum of Voracity (8 Intellect) on two and three minutes and Arcanum of Focus (8 healing) on one, a sign the two are close.
• Neck: Healing Power. Forever lets you enchant necklaces.
• Chest: Superior Intellect. Wrists: Healing Power.
• Hands: Mystic Rugged Armor Kit. Feet: Mystic Rugged Armor Kit. The Mystic Rugged Armor Kit is Forever's: 6 healing and 6 spell damage with its 40 armor.
• Main hand: these sets leave it empty. Enchant Weapon - Healing Power is taught in a raid, so it isn't in the pre-raid pool.

Consumables

Mana comes first. Flask of Distilled Wisdom adds 15.2 % to your healing, Major Mana Potion 13.4 % and Demonic Rune 9.9 %.

Potion and rune each run on their own two-minute timer, so neither blocks the other. Each rune also takes 600 to 1,000 of your health, a cost our fights never make you heal.

After those, Brilliant Wizard Oil adds 1.7 %, Cerebral Cortex Compound 4.1 %, Runn Tum Tuber Surprise 4.0 % and Mageblood Elixir 0.0 %.

On one minute the flask is your top consumable at 15.2 %: your bar only just lasts, and a bigger pool is there from the first second.
