anybody have any idea how this will jump?

will it be smart like wild growth? or just totally random

also, does it consume the rejuv on the previous target?

Comment by Egerhan

I think that it will not consume the rev on the other target that originaly got the rev casted on but im not 100% sure on that so dont take my word spot on. and i think it will jump randomly (not 100% sure on that either:D ) i only play resto druid as an alt so im not the best there is :P but this 4 set bonus is gonna be sweet.

Calculations for a rejuvenation with 6 ticks. Assumptions: it will never overwrite existing rejuvenations and it will proc from the new rejuvenation too.

Situation 1
Assumptions: does not consume rejuvenation on original target, can proc multiple times per rejuvenation
Proc chance 12% once, 1.44% twice, 0.17% three times; Extra ticks per proc: 6.
Average effect: 0.817 extra ticks, resulting in 13.6% extra healing

Situation 2
Assumptions: does not consume rejuvenation on original target, can proc only once per rejuvenation
Proc chance 11.4% once, 1.3% twice, 0.15% three times; Extra ticks per proc: 6.
Average effect: 0.772 extra ticks, resulting in 12.9% extra healing

Situation 3
Assumptions: does consume rejuvenation on original target
Proc chance 11.4% once, 1.3% twice, 0.15% three times; Extra ticks per proc: 3. (On average, it'll proc halfway)
Average effect: 0.386 extra ticks, resulting in 6.4% extra healing

Obviously, if it can't proc from the new rejuvenation, you'll see 12% extra healing in situation 1 and 11.4% extra healing in situation 2 and 5.7% extra healing in situation 3.

Since it's unlikely to consume the original target (that would be rather ugly if you ask me) I'd go with about 13% extra healing done.

I expect procs of this bonus to choose a new target in a similar manner to Chain Heal, and I'm completely certain that it will not consume the original Rejuvenation, as that would be ridiculously bad. That being said, whether this is a smart jump or a random jump, I don't expect it to matter much; players at low health are far often healed by a more direct heal before rejuvenation ticks have a chance to act upon them.

However, this'll be just fine for fights with heavy AoE damage, such as Festergut, H-Marrowgar, and so forth. I will miss the occasionally more powerful Swiftmend, though.

The way it reads 'jump' I'm assuming the spell transfers to a new player.

On the last iteration of the PTR the set bonus was reportedly tested out. The "jump" consumes the rejuvenation on the current target. So instead of gaining 6 rejuv ticks on someone after a proc, you will only gain 1-5 ticks, lose the rejuv you meant to put on someone (have fun swiftmending) and put on a random target you have no control over.

Bad set bonus is bad. Stick with t9 for the rejuv crit IMO.

Are you kidding me? with all the extra SP you get, drop that t9 - that 4set bonus wasn't that great..

After reading about this, I decided to write a program to model the effect of the 4T10 bonus, compared to the 4T9 bonus or having no set bonus at all.

The situation: A 25 man raid on a ten minute boss encounter with continuous raid damage (like Twin Valkyrs); A Haste-Capped Druid rolling rejuvenation perfectly over the raid, with no lag. The simulation was run 10,000 for each setup, and the results averaged. Note: The only difference between these trials is the set bonus. I did not account for the increase in stats equipping T10 would give. This is only to illustrate the difference between the set bonuses.

Assumptions: The 4T10 does consume the existing rejuv when it procs (as it did on the PTR). The proc'd rejuv may overwrite an existing rejuv on it's target. The proc'd rejuv may cause another proc.

Results:

With No Set Bonus:
Average Healing Done: 9,989,490
Max Healing in one trial: 10,119,478
Average Overhealing Done: 810,490
Max Overhealing in one trial: 955,379

With T9:
Average Healing Done: 11,086,039 (11% increase)
Max Healing in one trial: 11,310,875 (12% increase)
Average Overhealing Done: 1,063,562 (31% increase)
Max Overhealing in one trial: 1,286,739 (35% increase)

Explanation: T9 increases your total healing by roughly 1/2 your crit chance. But it also significantly increases your overhealing, because that bonus healing is 'focused' on a target already being healed by your rejuvenation.

With T10:
Average Healing Done: 9,729,391 (3% decrease)
Max Healing in one trial: 9,982,982 (1% decrease)
Average Overhealing Done: 788,569 (3% decrease)
Max Overhealing in one trial: 922,416 (3% decrease)

Explanation: T10 reduced the total amount of healing done due to rejuv 'munching' when the proc'd rejuv overwrote an existing rejuv on the target. Overhealing was unchanged, because any extra healing was spread onto a new target.

Summary/TL;DR: Based on reports from the PTR, I would recommend against getting 4T10. Raid healing druids may see their healing reduced due to rejuv overwriting. Tank healing druids may see their healing reduced due to rejuv jumping off of their nourish target.

As SeabeastRivin said above, it's been confirmed by Blizzard that the rejuv does not get consumed, so if you run the simulation again with this in mind, what's the recommendation? :P

Ghostcrawler said:

The latter. The Rejuv doesn't leap off of the target you actually wanted to heal. You just sometimes get a second hot on someone else.

It sounds like it was broken on the PTR for awhile, but we're pretty sure it works correctly on Live, and if not, we'll get it fixed.

Formed a group of 2 and continually cast Rejuv on the other person while standing at maximum healing range. I can confirm that the 4P T10 Rejuv Proc will jump the entire 40yards :)

The jump appears to ignore LoS. I've seen it jump through walls to people locked outside an encounter room.

So far, as I can tell, Healbot does not show the procc'd rejuv. It would be nice to know who's already got one of our massive hots before we throw another one on.
